Policy on Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditor Our audit committee has adopted a policy regarding the pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent auditor. Pursuant to this policy, our audit committee has approved the engagement of our independent auditor to provide the following services (all of which are collectively referred to as pre-approved services): • audit services as specified in the policy, including (i) financial audits of our company and our subsidiaries, (ii) services associated with registration statements, periodic reports and other documents filed or issued in connection with securities offerings (including comfort letters and consents), (iii) attestations of management reports on our internal controls and (iv) consultations with management as to accounting or disclosure treatment of transactions;
• audit related services as specified in the policy, including (i) due diligence services, (ii) financial statement audits of employee benefit plans, (iii) consultations with management as to the accounting or disclosure treatment of transactions, (iv) attest services not required by statute or regulation, (v) certain audits incremental to the audit of our consolidated financial statements, (vi) closing balance sheet audits related to dispositions, and (vii) general assistance with implementation of the requirements of certain SEC rules or listing standards; and • tax services as specified in the policy, including federal, state, local and international tax planning, compliance and review services, and tax due diligence and advice regarding mergers and acquisitions. Notwithstanding the foregoing general pre-approval, our audit committee approval is specifically required for (1) any individual project involving the provision of pre-approved audit and audit-related services that is expected to result in fees in excess of $150,000 and (2) any individual projects involving any other pre-approved service described above that is expected to result in fees in excess of $75,000. In addition, any engagement of our independent auditors for services other than the pre-approved services requires the specific approval of our audit committee. Our audit committee has delegated the authority for the foregoing approvals to its chairman, provided that the fees for any individual project for which such approval is requested are not, in the reasonable judgment of the chairman, likely to exceed $200,000. At each audit committee meeting, the chairman’s approval of services provided by our independent auditors is subject to disclosure to the entire audit committee. Our pre-approval policy prohibits the engagement of our independent auditor to provide any services that are subject to the prohibition imposed by Section 201 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (the Sarbanes-Oxley Act). All services provided by our independent auditor during 20192021 were approved in accordance with the terms of the policy in place.
PROPOSAL 3—THE ESPP PROPOSAL We are asking our shareholders to approve the Liberty Latin America Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ESPP). The ESPP was approved by the compensation committee of the Board on October 7, 2021 and by the Board on March 21, 2022, subject to the approval of our shareholders. If this Proposal 3 is approved by our shareholders, the ESPP will become effective as of October 7, 2021. In the event that our shareholders do not approve this Proposal 3, the ESPP will not become effective and no LILAK shares will be purchased.
Summary of the ESPP The material features of the ESPP are described below. The following description of the ESPP is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the ESPP, which is attached hereto as Appendix A. Shareholders are urged to read the actual text of the ESPP in its entirety.
Purpose
The purpose of the ESPP is to provide eligible employees of the company and subsidiaries and affiliates of the company that are designated to participate in the ESPP (designated companies) with an opportunity to purchase LILAK shares through contributions in the form of payroll deductions or otherwise to the extent permitted by the Administrator (as defined below).
The ESPP includes two components - a 423 Component and a Non-423 Component (as each such term is defined in the ESPP). The 423 Component is designed to allow eligible U.S. employees to purchase LILAK shares in a manner that is intended to qualify for favorable tax treatment under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). In addition, purchase rights may be granted under a Non-423 Component which does not by operation of law qualify for such favorable tax treatment. Any Non-423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component unless otherwise required under applicable foreign laws.
Administration
The ESPP is administered by the Board or any committee of the Board designated by the Board to administer the ESPP (the Administrator). The current Administrator is the compensation committee of our Board. The Administrator has full and exclusive discretionary authority to construe, interpret and apply the terms of the ESPP, to delegate ministerial duties to any of our employees, to designate separate offerings under the ESPP, to select designated companies, to determine eligibility, to adjudicate all disputed claims filed under the ESPP and to establish procedures that it deems necessary for the administration of the ESPP, such as adopting such procedures, sub-plans and special rules as are necessary or appropriate to permit participation in the ESPP by employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside the U.S. The Administrator’s findings, decisions, and determinations will be final and binding on all participants to the full extent permitted by law.
Shares Subject to the ESPP
Subject to adjustment for certain changes in our capitalization (as described in more detail in Adjustments below), the maximum number of shares that are available for issuance under the ESPP is 2,000,000 shares. The number of shares available for issuance under the ESPP will be increased on the first day of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2023 in a number of shares equal to the least of (i) 500,000 shares (subject to adjustment upon changes in our capitalization), (ii) 1% of the outstanding shares of all classes of our common shares on the last day of our immediately preceding fiscal year, or (iii) an amount determined by the Administrator.
Eligibility
Generally, all of our employees and employees of our designated companies are eligible to participate if they are customarily employed by us, or any participating subsidiary or affiliate, for at least 20 hours per week and more than five months in any calendar year. The Administrator will have the discretion, prior to an enrollment date for all options granted on such enrollment date in an offering, to determine that an employee who (i) has not completed at least two years of service (or a lesser period of time determined by the Administrator) since their last hire date, (ii) customarily works not more than 20 hours per week (or a lesser period of time determined by the Administrator), (iii) customarily works not more than five months per calendar year (or a lesser period of time determined by the Administrator), (iv) is a highly compensated employee within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code, or (v) is an officer or subject to disclosure requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, is or is not eligible to participate in such contribution period.
A participant may not be granted rights to purchase shares under the Section 423 Component of the ESPP if such participant would, immediately after the grant (i) own shares possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of our shares; or (ii) hold rights to purchase our common shares under all of our employee stock purchase plans that accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 worth of our common shares for each calendar year in which such option is outstanding at any time.
As of December 31, 2021, approximately 11,900 employees met the eligibility requirements for participation in the ESPP.
Offerings
The ESPP is implemented by offerings of rights to purchase LILAK shares to all eligible employees. The ESPP provides for consecutive offering periods, which we refer to as contribution periods, that will typically have a duration of approximately six months in length. The contribution periods are scheduled to start on the first trading day on or after January 1 and July 1 of each year. Participants were granted an opportunity to purchase LILAK shares under the Non-423 Component in the initial contribution period that commenced January 1, 2022, but such opportunity is fully contingent on shareholder approval. If our shareholders do not approve the ESPP, no shares will be purchased. The Administrator has the authority to change the duration of each contribution period prior its commencement, provided that no contribution period may exceed 27 months. The Administrator may establish separate offerings which vary in terms (although not inconsistent with the provisions of the ESPP or the requirements of applicable laws). When an eligible employee elects to participate in a contribution period, they are granted a right to purchase LILAK shares on the exercise date (which is the last trading day of each purchase period) within the contribution period. On the exercise date, all contributions collected from the participant are automatically applied to the purchase of LILAK shares, subject to certain limitations (which are described further in Eligibility above).
Limits on Employee Contributions; Exercise of Purchase Right; Non-423 Component Matching Shares
The ESPP permits participants to purchase LILAK shares through payroll deductions or otherwise of up to 15% of their eligible after-tax compensation. A participant will be able to purchase a maximum of 2,500 LILAK shares during a purchase period. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, purchase periods for all contribution periods will (i) commence on the first trading day on or after June 30 and December 31 and (ii) terminate on the last trading day on or before December 31 of the same year and June 30 of the following year, respectively.
Amounts deducted and accumulated by the participant are used to purchase LILAK shares at the end of each purchase period. The purchase price of the shares under the 423 Component is 85% of the lower of the fair market value of our LILAK shares on the first trading day of each contribution period or on the exercise date. Under the Non-423 Component of the ESPP, the purchase price of the shares is the lower of the fair market value of our LILAK shares on the first and last trading days of each contribution period.
A participant that purchases LILAK shares under the Non-423 Component of the ESPP and continues to hold all such purchased shares in their account through the one-year anniversary of each applicable purchase date will receive one matching LILAK share for every three whole LILAK shares purchased. In addition to the one-year holding requirement to receive matching shares, participants must remain continuously employed with us or with a designated company through the one-year anniversary of the applicable purchase date to be eligible to receive their matching LILAK shares, subject to certain exceptions to be determined by the Administrator on a case-by-case basis.
Restrictions on Transfer
A participant is not able to assign, transfer, pledge, or otherwise dispose of rights granted under the ESPP. If the Administrator permits the transfer of rights, it may only be done by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as otherwise provided under the ESPP.
Adjustments
Upon the occurrence of corporate events that impact any class of our common shares, the Administrator, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the ESPP may, in its sole and binding discretion, adjust (i) the number and class of shares that may be delivered under the ESPP, (ii) the purchase price per share and the number of shares covered by each option under the ESPP that has not yet been exercised, and (iii) the number of shares that may be purchased during a purchase period and made available under the ESPP. In the event of a proposed dissolution, liquidation, merger or change in control, any contribution period in progress and outstanding options will be treated as set forth in the ESPP.
Amendment and Termination
Our Board or the Administrator may amend, suspend or terminate the ESPP at any time. If the ESPP is terminated, our Board or the Administrator (x) may elect to terminate all outstanding contribution periods either immediately or upon completion of the purchase of LILAK shares under the ESPP (which may be sooner than originally scheduled, if determined by the Administrator), or (y) may elect to permit contribution periods to expire in accordance with their terms (and subject to any adjustment). If a contribution period is terminated prior to expiration, all amounts then credited to a participant’s account that have not been used to purchase LILAK shares under the ESPP will be returned to the participants as soon as administratively practicable. The ESPP will automatically terminate in 2031 unless the compensation committee of the Board terminates it sooner.
Federal Income Tax Information
The two subsections below summarize the principal United States federal income tax consequences to participants and us with respect to participation in the 423 Component of the ESPP and the Non-423 Component of the ESPP. This summary is not intended to be exhaustive and does not discuss the income tax laws of any local, state or foreign jurisdiction in which a participant may reside. The information is based upon current federal income tax rules and therefore is subject to change when those rules change. Because the tax consequences to any participant may depend on his or her particular situation, each participant should consult the participant’s tax adviser regarding the federal, state, local, and other tax consequences of the grant or exercise of a purchase right or the sale or other disposition of LILAK shares acquired under the ESPP. The ESPP is not qualified under the provisions of Section 401(a) of the Code and is not subject to any of the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
423 Component of the ESPP
The 423 Component of the ESPP, and the rights of participant employees to make purchases thereunder, qualify for treatment under the provisions of Sections 421 and 423 of the Code. Under these provisions, since the participants’ contributions are from after-tax compensation, generally no tax consequences arise when participants purchase shares under the ESPP and no income will be taxable to a participant until the LILAK shares purchased under the ESPP are sold or otherwise disposed of. Currently, no employment tax liability is incurred at the time LILAK shares are purchased under the ESPP. Any dividends paid under the ESPP will be taxable to the participants when paid, even if they are held under the ESPP.
Upon sale or other disposition of the LILAK shares, the participant will generally be subject to tax and the amount of the tax will depend upon the holding period. If the shares are sold or otherwise disposed of more than two years from the first day of the relevant contribution period (and more than one year from the date the shares are purchased), then the participant generally will recognize ordinary income measured as the lesser of:
a.the excess of the fair market value of the LILAK shares at the time of such sale or disposition over the purchase price of such shares, or
b.an amount equal to 15% of the fair market value of the LILAK shares as of the first day of the applicable contribution period.
Any additional gain should be treated as long-term capital gain. If the LILAK shares are held for at least the holding periods described above but are sold for a price that is less than the purchase price, there will be no ordinary income and the difference will be a long-term capital loss. We will not be entitled to an income tax deduction with respect to the grant or exercise of a right to purchase our LILAK shares, or the sale of such LILAK shares by a participant, where such participant holds such LILAK shares for at least the holding periods described above.
Any sale or other disposition of LILAK shares before the expiration of the holding periods described above will be a “disqualifying disposition,” and the participant will recognize ordinary income at the time of such disposition generally measured as the difference between the purchase price the participant paid for the LILAK shares and the fair market value of the LILAK shares on the participant’s purchase date , and we will be entitled to an income tax deduction for such ordinary income. If a participant makes a disqualifying disposition at a price in excess of the purchase price that the participant paid for the LILAK shares, the participant will recognize capital gain in an amount equal to the difference between the selling price of the LILAK shares and the fair market value of the LILAK shares on the participant’s purchase date. Alternatively, if a participant makes a disqualifying disposition at a price less than the fair market value of the LILAK shares on the participant’s purchase date, the participant will recognize a capital loss in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the LILAK shares on the participant’s purchase date and the sale price of the LILAK shares. We will not be entitled to an income tax deduction with respect to any capital gain the participant recognizes as a result of making a disqualifying disposition.
Non-423 Component of the ESPP
The Non-423 Component of the ESPP, and the rights of participant employees to make purchases thereunder, do not qualify for treatment under the provisions of Sections 421 and 423 of the Code.
If a purchase right is granted under the Non-423 Component of the ESPP, then to the extent a participant is subject to U.S. federal income tax, the amount equal to the excess (if any) of the fair market value of the LILAK shares on the purchase date over the purchase price is taxed as ordinary income at the time of purchase and the participant is subject to all applicable tax withholding requirements. The amount of such ordinary income will be added to the participant’s basis in the LILAK shares, and any additional gain or resulting loss recognized on the disposition of the LILAK shares after such basis adjustment will be subject to capital gain or loss treatment. A capital gain or loss will be long-term if the participant holds the LILAK shares for more than one year after the purchase date. Further, the company may be entitled to a deduction in the year of purchase equal to the amount of ordinary income realized by the participant.
If matching LILAK shares are granted, then to the extent a participant is subject to U.S. federal income tax, the fair market value of the matching LILAK shares on the date of grant will be taxed as ordinary income at the time of grant subject to all applicable tax withholding requirements. Matching LILAK shares will be subject to capital gains treatment measured from the date the matching LILAK shares are acquired and a capital gain or loss will be long-term if the participant holds the matching LILAK shares for more than one year after acquired. The company may be entitled to a deduction in the year the matching LILAK shares are granted equal to the value of the matching LILAK shares at the time of grant.
New Plan Benefits Participation in the ESPP is voluntary and each eligible employee will make their own decision regarding whether and to what extent to participate in the ESPP. Accordingly, the benefits or amounts that will be received by or allocated to our executive officers and other employees under the ESPP, as well as the benefits or amounts which would have been received by or allocated to our executive officers and other employees for fiscal year 2021 if the ESPP had been in effect, are not determinable.
Vote and Recommendation The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the combined voting power of the issued and outstanding common shares that are present in person or by proxy at the AGM, and entitled to vote on the subject matter, voting together as a single class, is required to approve the ESPP.
The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of the ESPP proposal.
EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS COMPENSATION Introduction We are an international provider of fixed, mobile and subsea telecommunications services, serving approximately 3.13.2 million fixed-line customers in over 20 countriesapproximately 40 markets at December 31, 2019.2021. These customers subscribed to approximately 66.4 million services, consisting of 2.0 million video, 2.62.9 million broadband internet, and 1.41.6 million telephony subscriptions. In addition, we had approximately 3.67.5 million mobile subscribers at December 31, 2019.2021. Our businesses operate in an environment marked by intense competition, extensive regulation and rapid technological change. We place great importance on our ability to attract, retain, motivate and reward talented executives who, faced with these challenges, can execute our strategy to drive shareholder value through strong organic growth, accretive mergers and acquisitions and prudent capital structure management. We were originally incorporated as a Bermuda company on July 11, 2017, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Global under the name LatAm Splitco Ltd. and we changed our name to Liberty Latin America on September 22, 2017. During December 2017, the Board of Directors of Liberty Global authorized the split-off of our company from Liberty Global, which was a plan to distribute to the holders of Liberty Global’s LiLAC Ordinary Shares, nominal value $0.01 per share (LiLAC Shares), common shares in our company and which was completed on December 29, 2017.2017 (the Split-Off). Our operations are in Chile, Costa Rica, Panama and Puerto Rico and our C&W operations are in the Caribbean and Latin America, including subsea and terrestrial fiber optic cable networks connecting overapproximately 40 markets throughout the region. This section presents information concerning compensation arrangements for our named executive officers (NEOs) for the year ended December 31, 2019. Prior to the Split-Off, and as part of Liberty Global, we did not have our own principal executive officer or principal financial officer. Prior to the Split-Off, we did not employ our executive officers, rather they were employed by Liberty Global or LiLAC Communications Inc., a Delaware company (Liberty LA), before it became one of our subsidiaries in the Split-Off. In addition, their responsibilities as our executive officers differ from those they held in their respective position prior to the Split-Off. Because our executive officers did not become officers of us until the Split-Off, compensation information is not available for prior periods. Following the Split-Off, compensation decisions for our executive officers and directors have been made by the compensation committee. 2021. Compensation information is provided for our NEOs – Balan Nair, our President, CEO and also a member of the Board; Christopher Noyes, our principal financial officer;Chief Financial Officer; Rocio Lorenzo, our CCO; John Winter, our Chief Legal Officer; and two former executive officers of our company – Betzalel Kenigsztein, General Manager of Cable and Wireless Panama (CWP) and our three other most highly compensated executive officers at the end of 2019: Vivek Khemka, our Chief Technology and Product Officer, Betzalel Kenigsztein, ourformer Chief Operating Officer and John Winter,Vivek Khemka, General Manager of VTR and our former Chief LegalTechnology and Products Officer. After the information on our NEOs, we also provide information relating to the compensation of our directors (other than Mr. Nair). Executive Summary Our compensation program plays a key role in promoting our company’s operating and financial success and provides incentives for our management team to execute our financial and operational goals. The primary goals of our executive compensation program are to: •Motivate our executives to maximize their contributions to the success of our company; •Attract and retain the best leaders for our business; and •Align executives’ interests to create shareholder value. We experienced a robust operational execution and financial performance in 20192021 and our Board credits the leadership of Mr. Nair for achieving this strong performance, as evidenced in our business highlights below.performance.
Compensation Structure—Pay for Performance As discussed above, because our executive officers did not become officers of us until the Split-Off, compensation information is not available for prior periods. After the Split-Off, ourOur compensation committee and Board reviewedreviews and approvedapproves compensation decisions affecting our NEOs and directors. We place great importance on our ability to attract, retain and motivate talented executives who can continue to grow our business. In general, we seek to design compensation packages for individual executives based on the scope of the executive’s responsibilities, the executive’s proven performance, and a determination of what is
competitive compensation in the market for similar roles, if such data is available. We continue to refine our compensation program to strengthen the link between executive and shareholder interests. Compensation Discussion and Analysis Overview of Compensation Process The compensation committee of our Board was established for the purposes of assisting our Board in discharging its duties with respect to compensation of our executive officers and the administration of our incentive plans. In furtherance of its purposes, our compensation committee is responsible for identifying our primary goals with respect to executive compensation, implementing compensation programs designed to achieve those goals, subject to appropriate safeguards to avoid unnecessary risk taking, and monitoring performance against those goals and associated risks. The chair of our compensation committee reports to our Board on annual compensation decisions and on the administration of existing programs and development of new programs. In addition, meetings of the compensation committee can be attended by any director, including directors who are not committee members. The members of our compensation committee are “independent directors” (as defined under the Nasdaq rules) and “non-employee directors” (as defined in Rule 16b-3 of the SEC’s rules under the Exchange Act). Compensation decisions with respect to our executive officers, including our NEOs, are made by our compensation committee. Our CEO is actively engaged in providing input to the compensation committee on compensation decisions for our other members of senior management in a variety of ways, including reviewing and recommending annual salaries, annual performance goals and the level of target and/or maximum performance awards for his executive team and evaluating their performance. With the assistance of our Human ResourcesPeople and Legal Departments, he is also involved in formulating the terms of proposed performance or incentive award programs for consideration by the compensation committee, evaluating alternatives and recommending revisions. Other senior officers, within the scope of their job responsibilities, participate in gathering and presenting to the compensation committee data and legal, tax and accounting analyses relevant to compensation and benefit decisions. Decisions with respect to our CEO’s compensation are made in private sessions of the compensation committee without the presence of management. In making its compensation decisions, the compensation committee ultimately relies on the general business and industry knowledge and experience of its members and the committee’s own evaluation of company and NEO performance. However, the compensation committee has the authority under its charter to engage its own compensation consultants and other independent advisers, and the committee may retain a compensation consultant to assist it in evaluating proposed changes in compensation programs or levels of compensation and to provide comparative data. Our shareholders voted, on an advisory basis, on the compensation of our NEOs (other than Mr. Khemka)Ms. Lorenzo) at our 20182021 annual general meeting of shareholders, and we received the approval of 98.9% of the aggregate votes cast on that proposal. No material changes were made to our executive compensation program as a result of this vote. At our 2018 annual general meeting of shareholders, shareholders elected to hold a say-on-pay vote every three years and our board of directors adopted this as the frequency at which future say-on-pay votes would be held. In early 2020,2021, our compensation committee approved our NEOs’ 20202021 target achievable annual cash performance awards, target annual equity awards for 2020,2021, consisting of 2020 PSUsRSUs and share appreciation rights, and the financial and operational targets for earning the annual cash performance awards. The target achievable annual cash performance and annual equity awards for our NEOs (other than Ms. Lorenzo) were identical to the 20192020 targets. In lightIncreases in our NEOs’ 2021 target annual equity awards are discussed in Elements of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and related developments, our compensation committee is actively monitoring the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy, our operations and future results, and we anticipate that our compensation committee will re-evaluate the performance goals and incentives associated with our 2020 PSU program. In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, in July 2020, the compensation committee reevaluated and reset the financial and operational targets for earning the annual cash performance awards. Our Compensation Package below.
On November 1, 2017, we and our subsidiary, Liberty LA, entered into a multi-year employment agreement with Mr. Nair to serve as our President and CEO, the terms of which are described below under Employment and Other Agreements. On July 24, 2019, weWe and our subsidiary, Liberty LA, entered into multi-year employment agreements with each of our other NEOs,Messrs. Noyes, Winter, Kenigsztein and Khemka on July 24, 2019 and with Ms. Lorenzo on July 16, 2021, the terms of which are described below under Employment and Other Agreements. We believe that it is in our company’s best interest to have an employment agreement with Mr. Nair to serve as our CEO and with each of our other NEOs in order to
promote stability in management, secure their services for the long term and implement appropriate restrictive covenants. Compensation Philosophy and Goals The compensation committee has three primary objectives with respect to executive compensation: motivation, retention and long-term value creation for our shareholders. •Motivate our executives to maximize their contributions •Establish a mix of financial and operational performance objectives based on our annual budget and our medium-term outlook to balance short- and long-term goals and risks •Establish individual performance objectives tailored to each executive’s role in our company to ensure individual accountability •Pay for performance that meets or exceeds the established objectives •Attract and retain superior employees •Offer compensation that we believe is competitive with the compensation paid to similarly situated employees of companies in our industry and companies with which we compete for talent •Include vesting requirements and forfeiture provisions in our multi-year equity awards, historically including a service period during which earned performance awards are subject to forfeiture •Align executives’ interest with shareholders •Emphasize long-term compensation, the actual value of which depends on increasing the share value for our shareholders, as well as meeting financial and individual performance objectives for a portion of awarded compensation •Require our executive officers to achieve and maintain significant levels of share ownership, further linking our executives’ personal net worth to long-term share price appreciation for our shareholders Our performance-based compensation programs provide the opportunity to reward the NEOs and other senior management for contributing to annual and long-term financial, operational, and share price performance. Our compensation committee made compensation decisions for the NEOs after the Split-Off. A high percentage of the NEOs’ total compensation is performance-based,aligned with a significant portion of total compensationshareholder interests and delivered in the form of multi-year performance-based equity incentive awards.awards, a significant portion of which are further based on company or individual performance. In approving the level of each compensation element for our executive officers, the compensation committee considers a number of factors, including: •the responsibilities assumed by the individual executive and the significance of the individual’s role to achievement of our financial, strategic and operational objectives; •the experience, overall effectiveness and demonstrated leadership ability of the individual executive; •the performance expectations set for our company and for the individual executive and the overall assessment by the compensation committee of actual performance;
•from time to time, comparative pay data for similarly situated employees of companies in our industry and companies with which we compete for talent; and •retention risks at specific points in time with respect to individual executives.
Setting Executive Compensation To achieve these compensation objectives, the compensation packages provided to members of our senior management (other than our Executive Chairman), including our NEOs, include three main components: base salary, annual performance awards and multi-year equity incentive awards. In addition, certain members of senior management, including our NEOs, may participate in our Deferred Compensation Plan (as defined below). The relative weighting of the components, the design of the performance and incentive awards and the overall value of the compensation package for individual employees varies based on the employee’s role and responsibilities. For members of our senior management, including our NEOs, the total value of the compensation package is most heavily weighted to performance and incentive awards because of the significance of each officer’s roles and responsibilities to the overall success of our company. Further, multi-year equity incentive awards are the largest component of executive compensation, serving the goals of retention as well as alignment with shareholders’ interests. The compensation committee’s objective is for a substantial majority of each executive officer’s total direct compensation (that is, base salary plus maximum annual cash performance award plus target annual equity incentive) to be comprised of the target value of his or her multi-year equity incentive awards. We aim to compensate our executive officers at levels that are commensurate with the levels of compensation for executives in similar positions at a group of publicly-traded peer companies. TheseIn February 2021, the compensation committee selected the following peer group companies were selected based on their similarity to our company with respect to several criteria, includingthe following criteria: industry, market value, size and financial performance with respect to revenue, net income and EBITDA: | | | | | | Altice USA, Inc. | Level 3 Communications, Inc. | AMC Networks Inc. | Millicom International Cellular S.A. | Cable One, Inc. | Shaw Communications Inc. | Cincinnati Bell Inc. | Telephone and Data Systems, Inc. | Consolidated Communications Holdings, Inc. | United States Cellular Corporation | Discovery, Inc. | VEON Ltd. | DISH Network Corporation | Vonage Holdings Corp. | IDT Corporation | WideOpenWest, Inc. | Frontier Communications CorporationLiberty Global plc | Windstream Holdings, Inc. | IDT Corporation | Zayo Group Holdings, Inc. |
Accordingly, weWe evaluate our executive compensation program, including our mix of cash and equity compensation, based on a review of this peer group. The compensation committee reviewed compensation data from these peer companies, and other relevant survey sources, to inform its decision about overall compensation opportunities and specific compensation elements. Our compensation committee generally targeted the 75th percentile of peer group compensation levels for our executive compensation program, subject to adjustments based on individual experience, expertise and performance.
Assessing NEO Performance The compensation committee employs a thorough process to evaluate our NEOs’ performance that informs its compensation decisions for the year, including those related to a NEO’s base salary, annual performance awards and annual equity awards. This design allows our compensation committee to employ a holistic evaluation process, taking into account factors in and out of their control, while balancing it with our financial and shareholder outcomes, to get to a better result. All of our NEOs provided critical strategic vision and leadership to our company during 2019.2021. Our CEO’s performance goals for 2021 focused on sixfive key areas: culture and leadership,people, customer and operational excellence, key financial and growth metrics,initiatives, transformation initiatives inorganic growth, and governance and reputation.

managed through a number of headwinds including fierce competition and vandalism to VTR’s network to remain focused on key priorities and to maintain an engaged workforce. The compensation committee considered each NEO’s performance and overall leadership relative to the size and complexity of the business and the regions in which Liberty Latin America operates. Elements of Our Compensation Packages The implementation of our compensation approach is described below. Base Salary General. Base salary represents the least variable element of our executives’ compensation and is provided as an economic consideration for each executive’s level of responsibility, expertise, skills, knowledge, experience and value to the organization. Generally, decisions with respect to increases in base salaries are expected to be based on increased responsibilities, company-wide budgets and increases in the cost of living. 2018 and 20192021 Base Salaries. For 2018,2021, the base salaries of Messrs. Nair, Noyes, Winter, Kenigsztein and Khemka Noyes and WinterMs. Lorenzo were $1.25 million, $700,000,$625,000,$625,000, $550,000, $700,000, $625,000 and $500,000,$440,000, respectively. Mr. Nair’sOur NEOs’ initial base salary issalaries are set in histheir respective employment agreement,agreements, the terms of which are described below under Employment and Other Agreements. In March 2019,February 2021, our compensation committee accepted our CEO’s recommendation that noneMr. Winter’s base salary be increased from $500,000 to $550,000 in recognition of his achievements during 2020 with respect to our discussions with government stakeholders in response to the pandemic and his leadership in our negotiations with the United States Department of Justice that ultimately resulted in the approval (subject to conditions) and closing of our NEOs receive an increaseacquisition of AT&T Inc.’s wireless and wireline operations in base salary for 2019.Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands in October 2020 (the AT&T Acquisition).
Annual Performance Awards General. Annual cash performance awards are one of the variable components of our executive officers’ compensation packages designed to motivate our executives to achieve our annual business goals and reward them for superior performance. Generally, at its first regular meeting following the end of each fiscal year, the compensation committee reviews with our CEO the financial performance of our company during the prior year, his performance, his evaluation of the performance of each of the other members of senior management (including our NEOs) participating in the prior year’s annual cash performance award program and his recommendations for any recognition award. The compensation committee determines whether our financial performance for the prior fiscal year has satisfied the base performance
objective set by the compensation committee, which is a precondition to the payment of any award to our CEO, and determines the percentage of the financial performance metric(s) that has been achieved. It then determines, in a private session, whether our CEO has met his individual performance goals for the year, whether he is entitled to any recognition bonus, and the amount to be paid to him with respect to his performance award. Starting with the 2019 annual cash performance plan, the compensation committee adopted the Recognition Bonus Program, whereby high performers within the company are eligible to receive, based on personal performance, a payout over the annual bonus amount, subject to the compensation committee’s approval of any recognition award for the NEOs. The compensation committee also approves the amount to be paid to the other participants in the program, including our other NEOs, with respect to their performance awards, and the terms of the annual cash performance award program for the current year, including, in a private session, the goals for our CEO for the coming year. In connection with our annual cash performance award program, we encourage increased share ownership among management, including our NEOs, in our various countries, aligning incentives among employees and shareholders. As a result, our compensation committee implemented a shareholding incentive plan (SHIP) that allows certain members of management to elect to receive up to 100% of their annual performance awards in our Class A common shares, par value $0.01 per share, and our Class C common shares, par value $0.01 per share, in
lieu of cash. A participant who elects to receive shares in respect to their annual cash performance award will also receive RSUs equal to 12.5% of the gross number of shares earned under the annual performance award. The RSUs will vest approximately one year after the grant date, provided the participant holds all of the shares issued in respect to the respective annual performance award through that period. The number of common shares granted will be based on the closing prices of our LILA and LILAK shares on the date the performance award is paid and delivered on a one for two ratio between our LILA and LILAK shares. The option to receive and hold shares commenced with the 2018 annual performance bonus program. Design of 20192021 Annual Bonus Program and 20192021 Performance. In approving the 20192021 annual performance bonus program (the 20192021 Annual Bonus Program), the compensation committee considered the following key elements of the 2019 Annual Bonus Program:elements: •the achievement of budgeted revenue and operating free cash flow (OFCF) growth; •the achievement of a target average rNPS;customer relationship net promoter score (rNPS); and •the base performance objective for our CEO required that either 50%25% of 20192021 budgeted revenue growth or 50%25% of 20192021 budgeted OFCF growth be achieved. The total bonus payout based on the above performance metrics is the sum of the percentages derived from the achievement in 20192021 of such metrics, with a maximum payout of 150% for over-performance for each of revenue, OFCF and rNPS. The metrics are weighted as: (i) revenue, (weightedweighted 30%); (ii) OFCF, (weightedweighted 50%); and (iii) rNPS, (weightedweighted 20%). The 20192021 target achievable performance award was $3.5 million and $500,000 for our CEO and CCO, respectively, pursuant to the terms of histheir employment agreementagreements, $750,000 for Mr. Kenigsztein and $1.0 million for each of the other NEOs. Additionally, each participant is eligible for the Recognition Bonus Program, which could increase the 20192021 annual bonus to up to 130% of the annual bonus result. Of note, budgeted revenue growth and budgeted OFCF growth provides for most of the total bonus payout amount for all participants. Budgeted growthThe 2021 Annual Bonus Program was adopted and approved in February 2021. Certain participants in the 2021 Annual Bonus Program, including the NEOs, are required to take 100% of the bonus in company stock under the SHIP.
Growth was determined by comparing 20182020 actual results, as adjusted for acquisitions, a disposition and FX,foreign currency exchange rates, for the applicable metric to the amount budgeted for that metric in the 20192021 audited consolidated financial statements as approved by our Board. The payout schedule for each financial metric is based on the percentage achievement against the 2019 budget,target set at the February 2021 compensation committee meeting, as adjusted for events during the performance period such as acquisitions, dispositions, the impact of unforeseen changes in laws and regulations and changes in foreign currency exchange rates and accounting principles or policies that affect comparability. In choosing OFCF as one of the performance measure for the 2019 annual bonus program, the compensation committee’s goal was to align achievement of that portion of the bonus with a key performance indicator for the company to deliver operating fee cash flow while maintaining efficient operating performance and generating free cash flow.
At its meeting on February 21, 2020,15, 2022, the compensation committee reviewed the actual revenue and OFCF for 20192021 based on our 20192021 audited consolidated financial statements. It also considered whether to exercise its discretion to reduce the total bonus payout amount to any of our NEOs. The exercise of the compensation committee’s discretion was in each case based on its assessment of our 20192021 financial performance and the individual NEO’s performance overall as compared to his 2019their 2021 performance goals, taking into account the payout schedules for financial and individual performance. The following table provides further details of our 20192021 Annual Bonus Program plan for our NEOs, including the levels that were pre-established for the quantitative goals and the actual achievement against those goals. The target levels established for the quantitative goals are bolded. At the February 21, 202015, 2022 meeting, the compensation committee approved the payments to our NEOs with respect to their target achievable bonus as set forth in the table below.

Mr. Kenigsztein’s target annual bonus was initially set at $1.0 million, but was reduced to $750,000 because CWP’s 2021 financial results did not meet the revenue and operating cash flow performance targets established by the compensation committee in March 2021. Equity Incentive Awards General. Multi-year equity incentive awards, whether in the form of conventional equity awards or performance-based awards, represent a significant portion of our executives’ compensation. These awards ensure that our executives have a continuing stake in our company’s success, align their interests with our shareholders and also serve the goal of retention through vesting requirements and forfeiture provisions. OurGiven the continued uncertainty of the pandemic, in particular in the countries in which the company operates, the compensation committee’scommittee established a 2021 long-term incentive program comprised of RSUs and SARs that vest over a three-year period (the 2021 Long-Term Incentive Awards). Furthermore, the compensation committee approved a separate one-time grant of performance-based share appreciation rights (PSARs) that would vest in March 2024, subject to the achievement of individual objectives in each of the years 2021, 2022 and 2023 (the Phoenix Awards, and together with the 2021 Long-Term Incentive Awards, the 2021 Equity Incentive Awards).
The RSUs, SARs and PSARs that comprise the 2021 Equity Incentive Awards were strategically selected by the compensation committee based on the following conclusions and considerations: •The organizational risks of incentive compensation can be reduced through: •the use of multiple equity vehicles (for example, RSUs, SARs and PSARs) with different performance, retention, risk and reward profiles; •annual grants of equity awards that spread the target incentive compensation over multiple and overlapping performance/service periods and provide the flexibility to change performance metrics, weighting and targets from grant to grant; and •the setting of achievable target performance levels, while providing higher payout levels for over-performance. •The use of performance-based equity awards, such as PSARs, adds an element of market risk over the performance/service period to better align the interests of management and shareholders, while focusing management on achieving specified performance targets to earn the award; •The use of conventional equity awards, such as SARs, provides a retention mechanism and alignment with shareholders by only delivering value if the stock price appreciates; and
•Providing for forfeiture or reduction of performance-based equity awards based on individual performance ensures that each participant remains accountable for his or her own performance against performance goals tailored to the participant’s role and responsibilities. 2021 Long-Term Equity Awards. Pursuant to the Liberty Latin America 2018 Incentive Plan (Incentive Plan), in March 2021, the compensation committee approved the target annual equity values for 2021 and granted an aggregate of 721,131 RSUs (the 2021 RSUs) and 1,523,952 SARs (the 2021 SARs) to our CEO and the other NEOs of the company. For the 2021 long-term incentive program, the compensation committee determined that a combination of 40% SARs and 60% RSUs was appropriate for all recipients, including our NEOs. The RSUs and SARs are each issued in common shares at a ratio of one-third Class A and two-thirds Class C, reflecting the approximate ratio of outstanding shares of the company's Class A and Class C common shares, and past practice in our incentive plans. This approach conforms the 2021 equity grants with the market practice to equity incentiveprovide a form of time-vested awards for all grant recipients in the senior management team placesRSUs and to align compensation with shareholder returns with the SARs. The following table summarizes the target annual equity values and number of 2021 RSUs and 2021 SARs granted to our NEOs: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 60% of Target Annual Equity Value in the Form of | | 40% of Target Annual Equity Value in the Form of | Name and Position | | Target Annual Equity Value | | Class A 2021 RSU Grant | Class C 2021 RSU Grant | | Class A 2021 SAR Grant | Class C 2021 SAR Grant | Balan Nair | | 6,500,000 | | 93,257 | 186,514 | | 195,860 | 391,720 | Christopher Noyes | | 2,500,000 | | 35,868 | 71,736 | | 75,331 | 150,662 | Rocio Lorenzo | | 1,500,000 | | | 21,583 | | 43,166 | | | 48,465 | | 96,930 | | John M.

(1) Mr. Kenigsztein forfeited 7,741 LILA RSUs, 14,347 LILAK RSUs, 15,066 LILA SARs and 30,133 LILAK SARs, which were subject to the achievement of CWP revenue and OCF performance targets that were not met in 2021. One-third of the 2021 RSUs and 2021 SARs vest on March 15 of each of 2022, 2023 and 2024, except for Ms. Lorenzo whose 2021 RSUs and 2021 SARs vest on August 1st of each of 2022, 2023 and 2024. The SARs have a significant emphasisterm of ten years (increased from seven years in our previous grants) and base prices equal to the market closing price of the common shares on performance-basedthe grant date of March 16, 2021, which was $14.00 for LILA and $14.10 for LILAK, except for Ms. Lorenzo whose 2021 SARs have a ten-year term and base prices equal to the market closing price of the common shares on the grant date of July 16, 2021, which was $13.53 for LILA and $13.57 for LILAK.The SARs and RSUs are subject to tax withholding, forfeiture, acceleration, amendment or other terms in connection with certain terminations of employment, change-of-control events and other terms with executives, generally consistent with the terms of equity awards. awards previously granted by the company.
In determining the target annual equity values and number of 2021 RSUs and 2021 SARs to be granted to our NEOs, the compensation committee considered the performance of our executive officers in 2020 as well as 2020 annual equity award targets.The compensation committee sets arecognized Mr. Noyes’ leadership in preserving our balance sheet and driving cost reduction initiatives during the pandemic and the delivery of positive free cash flow for 2020; Mr. Winter’s achievements during 2020 with respect to our discussions with government stakeholders in response to the pandemic and his leadership in our negotiations with the United States Department of Justice that ultimately resulted in the approval (subject to conditions) and closing of the AT&T Acquisition; Mr. Kenigsztein’s leadership with respect to our commercial strategy and plan to respond to the pandemic and the delivery of 171,000 additional total revenue generating units and his new responsibilities as General Manager of CWP; and Mr. Khemka’s management of our performance and maintenance of our networks around the region during the pandemic and his new responsibilities as General Manager of VTR.Based on its review of Messrs. Noyes, Winter, Kenigsztein and Khemka’s 2020 performance, and upon our CEO’s recommendation, the compensation committee granted the target annual equity values for 2021 Long-Term Incentive Awards summarized in the table above, such values which when compared to the target annual equity values for 2020 annual equity awards, represent an increase in annual equity award target values for the following NEOs by the indicated amounts : Mr. Noyes – $1.0 million, Mr. Winter – $750,000, Mr. Kenigsztein – $500,000 and Mr. Khemka – $750,000. The 2021 target annual equity value for Mr. Nair remained unchanged at $6.5 million, and Ms. Lorenzo’s $1.5 million 2021 target annual equity value was set pursuant to her employment agreement.The $500,000 increase to Mr. Kenigsztein’s 2021 annual equity award target was subject to CWP’s achievement of certain revenue and operating cash flow (OCF) (as defined below) performance targets set by the compensation committee in March 2021, which were not met.
2021 Phoenix Awards. As noted above, the compensation committee has three primary objectives with respect to executive compensation - motivation, retention and alignment of interests to create shareholder value. Pursuant to the Incentive Plan, on March 16, 2021 (or July 16, 2021 in Ms. Lorenzo’s case), the compensation committee approved the Phoenix Awards for our NEOs and other key employees. The Phoenix Awards are designed to motivate and reward employees to build momentum in the company's operating performance over the next three years, drive the company to emerge stronger from the pandemic, accelerate the company’s transition to a digital first company, retain key executives and to drive our senior management toward attaining increased shareholder value over the three-year performance period.
The Phoenix Awards are in the form of PSARs. Reflecting the approximate ratio of outstanding shares of the company's Class A and Class C common shares, and past practice in our incentive plans, the PSARs are each issued in common shares at a ratio of one-third Class A and two-thirds Class C. Each PSAR represents the right to receive a payment in shares or, if the compensation committee so determines, cash or a combination of cash and shares, equal to the excess of the fair market value of the common shares on the day of exercise over the base price specified in the grant, subject to performance and vesting. The Phoenix Awards have performance conditions based on achievement of individual objectives in each of the years 2021, 2022, and 2023. These objectives consist of quantitative and qualitative measures, which include individual strategic, financial, transactional, organizational and/or operational goals. The Phoenix Awards will vest on March 15, 2024, subject to satisfaction of the individual objectives and continued employment of the recipient through this date. The Phoenix Award for our CEO is 3 million (comprised of 1 million Class A PSARs and 2 million Class C PSARs) and for each of the other named executive officers is 300,000 PSARs (comprised of 100,000 Class A PSARs and 200,000 Class C PSARs), except the Phoenix Award for Mr. Kenigsztein is 100,000 PSARs (comprised of 33,333 Class A PSARs and 66,667 Class C PSARs). The PSARs have a term of ten years and base prices equal to the market closing price of our Class A and Class C common shares on the grant date, which was $14.00 for LILA and $14.10 for LILAK for our NEOs, except for Ms. Lorenzo whose PSARs have base prices equal to the market closing price of the common shares on the grant date of July 16, 2021, which was $13.53 for LILA and $13.57 for LILAK. The Phoenix Awards are subject to tax withholding, forfeiture, acceleration, amendment or other terms in connection with certain terminations of employment, change-of-control events and other terms with executives, generally consistent with the terms of equity awards previously granted by the company.
Decisions for 2020 PSUs. For the equity incentive awards awarded through 2020, approximately two-thirds iswere delivered in the form of an annual award of performance-based restricted share units (PSUs) and approximately one-third in the form of an annual award of SARs. All of these awards are made pursuant to the Liberty Latin America 2018 Incentive Plan (Incentive Plan).Plan. Each year’s award of PSUs has a two-year performance period. The percentage of the PSU award earned during the relevant performance period is subject to vesting in two equal installments during the year following the end of the performance period. Each year’s award of SARs is made at the same time as awards are made under our annual equity grant program for employees and on terms consistent with our standard form of SARs award agreement.
2019 PSUs and SARs.Pursuant to the Incentive Plan, in March 2019, the compensation committee approved, in early 2020, the target annual equity values for 20192020 and granted an aggregate of 412,671698,598 PSUs (the 20192020 PSUs) to our CEO and the other NEOs of our company. The 2019company, other than Ms. Lorenzo who joined our company in July 2021. Such 2020 PSUs were divided with one-third as Class A PSUs and two-thirds as Class C PSUs. Each 2019 PSU representsadjusted due to the right to receive one Class A common share or Class C common share, as applicable, subject to performance and vesting. In 2019, the compensation committee also granted an aggregate of 694,449 SARsrights offering conducted in September 2020 (the 2019 SARsRights Offering), resulting in an additional 20,236 2020 PSUs being issued to our CEO and the other NEOs of our company. The 2019 SARs were divided with one-third as Class A SARs and two-thirds as Class C SARs.

The performance period for the 2019 PSUs endsNEOs. Furthermore, at its meeting on December 31, 2020. As the performance measure,February 19, 2021, the compensation committee selected growthOCF as the performance measure and established minimum, target and maximum performance goals related to 2021 OCF, which could result in award recipients earning 50% to 150% of their target 2020 PSUs, subject to reduction or forfeiture based on individual performance. OCF is defined as operating cash flow (OCF) (operating income before depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, provisions and provision releases related to significant litigation for litigation, and impairment, restructuring and other operating items),items, as adjusted for events such as acquisitions, dispositions and changes in foreign currency exchange rates and accounting principles or policies that affect comparability. In choosing OCF as the performance measure for the 20192020 PSUs, the compensation committee’s goal was to ensure that the management team is focused on maximizing performance against a key financial metric used by our Board and management in evaluating our operating performance. The target OCF compound annual growth rate (OCF CAGR) is subject to upward or downward adjustment for certain events in accordance with the terms of the grant agreement. A performance range of 50% to 125% of the target OCF CAGR would result in award recipients earning 50% to 150% of their target 2019 PSUs, subject to reduction or forfeiture based on individual performance. One-half of the earned 2019 PSUs will vest on April 1, 2021 and the balance on October 1, 2021. The compensation committee also established a minimum OCF CAGR base performance objective, subject to certain limited adjustments, which must be satisfied in order for our CEO to be eligible to earn any of his 2019 PSUs. The base performance objective was designed so that the awards for our CEO would qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the Code), see —Tax and Accounting Considerations below. If the base performance objective is achieved, our CEO will be eligible to earn up to 150% of his 2019 PSUs, subject to the compensation committee’s discretion to reduce the size of the award earned, including to zero, to align with our company’s and the individual’s performance.
The 2019 PSUs are subject to forfeiture or acceleration in connection with certain termination of employment or change in control events as described in —Potential Payments upon Termination or Change of Control—Termination of Employment—Death. The 2019 PSUs will convert to time-vested restricted share units following certain change in control events.
The 2019 SARs provide for vesting 12.5% of the shares on November 1, 2019 and the remaining shares in 14 equal quarterly installments commencing on February 1, 2020.
While we expect the compensation committee to follow this approach to equity incentive compensation in future years, as a relatively new company, our compensation committee continues to evaluate appropriate timing of grants under our annual equity grant program and may determine to grant awards at another time in subsequent years. In adopting this approach to equity incentive compensation, the compensation committee made the following observations:
The organizational risks of incentive compensation should be reduced through:
the use of multiple equity vehicles (PSUs and SARs) with different performance, retention, risk and reward profiles;
annual grants of equity awards that spread the target incentive compensation over multiple and overlapping performance/service periods and provide the flexibility to change performance metrics, weighting and targets from grant to grant; and
the setting of achievable target performance levels, while providing higher payout levels for over-performance.
The use of performance-based equity awards, such as PSUs, adds an element of market risk over the performance/service period to better align the interests of management and shareholders, while focusing management on achieving specified performance targets to earn the award;
The use of conventional equity awards, such as SARs, provides a retention mechanism and alignment with shareholders by only delivering value if the stock price appreciates; and
Providing for forfeiture or reduction of performance-based equity awards based on individual performance ensures that each participant remains accountable for his or her own performance against performance goals tailored to the participant’s role and responsibilities.
Decisions for 2018 PSUs. In March 2018, the compensation committee of the Board granted 369,501 PSUs (the 2018 PSUs) with a two-year performance period ending on December 31, 2019. The performance measure was based on a two-year OCF CAGR target. The 2018 PSUs required a performance of at least 50% of the target OCF CAGR for payout with over-performance payout opportunities if the OCF CAGR exceeded the target, subject to reduction or forfeiture based on individual performance. One-half of the earned 2018 PSUs vested on April 1, 2020 and the balance vested on October 1, 2020.
The following table sets forth the threshold, target and maximum performance levels and related payouts for the 20182020 PSUs: | | | | Performance | | Performance | | | | Performance Level | | OCF CAGR | | Payout | | Performance Level | OCF | Payout | Maximum | | 125% | | 7.8% | | 150% | Maximum | 150% | $1,832 million | 150% | Target | | 100% | | 6.2% | | 100% | Target | 100% | $1,792 million | 100% | Threshold | | 50% | | 3.1% | | 50% | Threshold | 50% | $1,752 million | 50% |
The compensation committee determines the actual payout by “straight-line interpolation” if our actual OCF CAGR for the performance period falls between the specified threshold, target and maximum performance levels in the table. The actual OCF CAGR for the performance period is calculated by comparing 2019 OCF against 2018 OCF, asmay be adjusted for events during the performance period such as acquisitions, dispositions and changes in foreign currency exchange rates and accounting principles or policies that affect comparability. The compensation committee may also adjust the target OCF CAGR for extraordinary events that distort performance. At its February 21, 202015, 2022 meeting, our compensation committee reviewed management’s calculations of 2018 and 20192021 OCF, and the resulting OCF CAGR, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the 20182020 PSU grant agreements. The
required adjustments to the OCF for 2018 and 20192021 were made pursuant to the terms of the 20182020 PSU grant agreements and included adjustments to (1) reflect consistent foreign currency exchange rates, (2) remove the effects of (1) the acquisitionsTelefónica-Costa Rica Acquisition (and related impacts of Cabletica and UTSsuch acquisition, including integration costs), as these are acquisitionsthis is an acquisition to be excluded pursuant to the guidelines and (3) remove two months of OCF during 2017(2) lease accounting adjustments related to the AT&T Acquisition and the disposition of our operationssubsidiary, VTR, in the Seychelles following our disposition of this operation in November 2019.pending Chile JV. As permitted by the 20182020 PSU grant agreements, the compensation committee also approved adjustments for certain events or circumstances that in its view distorted performance. These discretionary revisions to the target OCF CAGR included adjustments (a) adding back the cost impact of estimated OCF impact related to the politicalvolcanic activity on our operations in St. Vincent and social unrest in Chile from late October 2019 through year-end 2019 (excluding FX), and (b) adding back of estimated OCF impact related to Hurricane Dorian in August and September 2019.Barbados. The required and discretionary adjustments, in the aggregate, reduceddecreased our OCF for 2017target to $1,792 million and decreased our 2021 OCF of $1,352.6$1,829 million to $1,310.0$1,801 million. Based on the foregoing, the compensation committee determined that approximately 97.37%111.4% of the target OCF CAGR had been achieved. This determination was made by dividing the adjusted actual OCF CAGR achieved (6.04%)above target ($9 million) by the target OCF CAGR (6.20%)$40 million, using maximum available precision. That percentage achievement of the target OCF, CAGR, which fell between the thresholdtarget and targetmaximum levels in the preceding table, translated into 97.37%111.4% of the target 20182020 PSUs being earned. The compensation committee further
determined that based on each NEO’s individual performance over the performance period, no reduction would be made to the percentage of target 20182020 PSUs, which had been earned based on financial performance. The table below sets forth the actual number of the 20182020 PSUs that were earned and which were converted to time-vested RSUs pursuant to the terms of the 2018 PSUs.2020 PSUs, including the additional PSUs granted to each NEO as an adjustment in connection with the Rights Offering. One-half of the earned 2020 PSUs will vest on March 15, 2022 and the balance on September 15, 2022. | | Name | | LLA Class A RSUs | | LLA Class C RSUs | Name | LLA Class A RSUs | LLA Class C RSUs | Balan Nair | | 61,240 | | 122,480 | Balan Nair | 137,648 | 287,257 | Christopher Noyes | | 15,310 | | 30,621 | Christopher Noyes | 31,765 | 66,290 | Rocio Lorenzo | | Rocio Lorenzo | – | John Winter | | John Winter | 26,471 | 55,242 | Betzalel Kenigsztein | | 15,310 | | 30,621 | Betzalel Kenigsztein | 31,765 | 66,290 | Vivek Khemka | | 15,309 | | 30,619 | Vivek Khemka | 31,765 | 66,290 | John Winter | | 12,757 | | 25,515 | |
Share Ownership Policy Our compensation committee has established an Executive Share Ownership Policy, effective March 2018, for our executive officers and senior officers. The purpose of the Executive Share Ownership Policy is to ensure that our officers have a significant stake in our long-term success and are aligned with our shareholders. As a result, the compensation committee established guidelines for ownership of our common shares based on an individual’s level in our company and expressed as a multiple of base salary as follows: | | | | | | | | | Position | | Guideline | Chief Executive Officer | | 5 times base salary | Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Technology and Product Officer and Chief Legal Officer | | 4 times base salary | All other members of the Executive Leadership Team, including our Chief Customer Officer | | 3 times base salary |
Executive and senior officers, who were subject to the policy at the time of adoption, were expected to be in compliance with the ownership guidelines within four years of the policy’s effective date. New executive and senior officers must be in compliance within four years of the date they become subject to the policy. In calculating the value of common shares owned by an executive and a senior officer, the policy includes the value of common shares owned jointly with and separately by the officer’s spouse and minor children, 50% of the value of vested common shares held in the officer’s account in the Liberty Latin America 401(k) Savings and Stock Ownership Plan, and 50% of the in-the-money value of vested options and SARs.
Deferred Compensation Plan Under the Liberty Latin America Deferred Compensation Plan (the Deferred Compensation Plan), our executive and other officers who are U.S. taxpayers and who are designated as participants from time to time by our compensation committee may elect to defer payment of certain of their compensation as described under —Deferred Compensation Plan below. We do not have a pension or other defined benefit-type plan to offer our executive and senior officers. For these executive officers and employees who are based in the U.S., we contribute to the defined contribution Liberty Latin America 401(k) Savings and Stock Ownership Plan, but such contributions are capped by U.S. law. Accordingly, the Deferred Compensation Plan was adopted by the compensation committee to provide a tax-efficient method for participants who are U.S. taxpayers to accumulate value, thus enhancing our ability to attract and retain senior management. With respect to the tax ramifications to us of the Deferred Compensation Plan, the compensation committee noted in adopting the plan that the corporate tax deduction on the deferred compensation
may not be taken until payments to participants are made, but that we will have use of the cash in the interim. Although our compensation committee deemed the Deferred Compensation Plan to be an important benefit to participants, it is not included in any quantitative valuation with the three main components of our compensation packages, because participation in the plan, and to what extent, is at each participant’s discretion. Other Benefits We do not offer perquisites and other personal benefits on a general basis to our executive officers. The personal benefits we have provided are limited to personal use of our corporate aircraft, and an executive health plan.plan and relocation benefits. Under our aircraft policy, members of our Board, our CEO, other executive officers and certain senior officers, with our CEO’s or Chief Legal Officer’s approval, may use our corporate aircraft for personal travel, subject to reimbursing us for the aggregate incremental costs incurred, plus applicable taxes. Incremental costs may include fuel, oil, lubricants and other additives, hangar and tie down costs away from aircraft home airport, travel expenses for crew, landing and parking fees, customs and immigration fees, insurance obtained for a specific flight, in-flight food and beverage services, ground transportation, de-icing fees and flight planning and weather contract services. Pursuant to his employment agreement, the annual flight hours for Mr. Nair’s personal use of our aircraft is 50 hours per year without cost reimbursement. If Mr. Nair’s personal use of our aircraft exceeds 50 annual flight hours for a relevant calendar year, he will also be obligated to pay us the aggregate incremental cost of such usage over his allotted 50 annual flight hours. Also under our aircraft policy, our CEO and, with his approval, our other executive officers and certain senior officers may have family members or other personal guests accompany them on our corporate aircraft while traveling on business without reimbursing us for the incremental cost attributable to the personal guest. The taxable income of an officer will include imputed income equal to the value of the personal use of our aircraft by him and by his personal guests determined using a method based on the Standard Industry Fare Level (SIFL) rates, as published by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Income is imputed only to the extent that the value derived by such applicable method exceeds the amount the officer pays us for such personal use. We also provide an executive health plan for our executive and senior officers to proactively manage and improve their health. The benefits of this program include a complete medical history review, annual physical examinations, comprehensive laboratory testing, diagnostic testing and consultations with specialists. In 2021, Ms. Lorenzo, Mr. Kenigsztein and Mr. Khemka each received relocation, housing and expatriate benefits in connection with Ms. Lorenzo’s and Mr. Kenigsztein’s relocations to Panama and Mr. Khemka’s relocation to Chile. Ms. Lorenzo’s employment agreement also provides for tuition support for each child for up to three years, and reimbursement of reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with the negotiation of her employment agreement. If Ms. Lorenzo voluntarily resigns from our company or is terminated for cause between July 17, 2022 and July 15, 2024, she will be required to reimburse us for half of her relocation expenses. Mr. Khemka also received tuition benefits during 2021. Tax and Accounting Considerations Under the 2017 Tax Act, Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations and interpretations promulgated thereunder was amended effective for 2018 to prohibit the deduction of compensation in excess of $1.0 million paid to “covered employees”, which may limit our ability to deduct all compensation paid to certain of our executives in the future. Effective for our taxable year beginning January 1, 2018, the exception under Section 162(m) for performance-based compensation will no longer be available, subject to transition relief for certain grandfathered arrangements in effect as of November 2, 2017. To the extent the transition relief is available under the 2017 Tax Act to preserve deductions under Section 162(m) grandfathered arrangements, the committee may determine to satisfy those requirements although we have not adopted a policy requiring eligible compensation to be deductible. While the compensation committee considers the accounting and tax implications of its compensation decisions, other important
considerations may outweigh such tax or accounting implications, and the compensation committee reserves the right to establish compensation arrangements that may not be fully tax deductible under applicable tax
laws. Our compensation committee endeavors to ensure that any compensation that could be characterized as non-qualified deferred compensation complies with Section 409A of the Code. Our compensation committee also takes into account from time to time, as appropriate, the accounting treatment of compensation elements in determining types and levels of compensation, including method of payment, for our executive officers. Recoupment Policy We have a recoupment policy, which is reflected in the terms of our PSU awards and our annual cash performance awards for executive officers, that provides that if our consolidated financial statements for any of the years relevant to the determination of whether the applicable performance metrics have been met are required to be restated at any time as a result of an error (whether or not involving fraud or misconduct) and our compensation committee determines that if the financial results had been properly reported the portion of the awards that would have been earned by participants would have been lower than the awards actually earned by them, then each participant will be required to refund and/or forfeit the excess amount of his or her earned award. Post-Employment Benefits and Change in Control Our CEO and each of our NEOs are entitled to post-employment benefits under their respective employment agreements. See Employment and Other Agreements below. Additionally, our NEOs and executive officers are entitled to the same benefit of accelerated vesting of all or part of conventional equity awards made under the Incentive Plan on certain termination-of-employment events as other holders of such awards. Similarly, the Incentive Plan provides the same treatment to all holders of conventional equity awards granted under these plans upon the occurrence of certain change in control events. Accordingly, the existence of these potential post-employment and change in control benefits has not influenced our compensation committee’s decisions with respect to executive compensation. In designing the terms for the PSU awards,2020 PSUs and Phoenix Awards, our compensation committee determined that only a limited set of events would warrant automatic acceleration of awards thereunder. The terms of the 2020 PSU awards do not guarantee that any portion of an award will be deemed earned upon termination of employment, except as a result of death, nor that vesting of earned awards will be accelerated upon termination of employment, except as a result of death or disability. AwardsThe 2020 PSUs will only be accelerated upon specified change in control events if the awards are not continued on the same terms and conditions or, in the case of certain corporate reorganization transactions, effective provision has not been made for the assumption or continuation of the awards on equivalent terms. The Phoenix Awards would fully vest upon a termination due to death or disability, and the compensation committee has discretion to vest a prorated portion of the Phoenix Awards upon a qualifying retirement or a termination of employment without cause. Full vesting of the Phoenix Awards will only be accelerated upon specified change in control events as discussed in Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control below. The compensation committee believes these limited acceleration events related to a change in control provide appropriate protection to participants and would serve to maintain morale and aid retention during the disruptive circumstances of a change in control. The compensation committee reserved discretion to approve the accelerated vesting of an individual’s award or an amendment to an individual’s award agreements when appropriate under the circumstances. For additional information on post-employment benefits and change in control provisions, see Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control below. Timing of Equity Awards For purposes of determining the number of LILA and LILAK PSUsawards to be granted each year for the target annual equity values of our executive officers and other key employees, our compensation committee expects to use the 1:2 weighted, LILA and LILAK, 5-day average of the closing prices of such shares leading up to the date of such committee’s
approval of the grants to determine the number of awards to issue. The grant date for such awards generally occurs in March of each year. For 2019,2021, awards were granted toward the end of March.in mid-March to our NEOs, except that Ms. Lorenzo’s awards were granted in mid-July when she joined our company. As a relatively new company, our compensation committee continues to evaluate appropriate timing of grants under our annual equity grant program and may determine to grant awards
at another time in subsequent years. Grants of equity awards to eligible employees would otherwise only be made in connection with significant events, such as hiring or promotion. Policies Regarding Hedging Our Board has adopted an Insider Trading Policy that requires each of our directors and executive officers to pre-clear all proposed transactions in our company’s securities, including hedging or monetization transactions, with the Legal Department or our company’s outside counsel. The policy prohibits short sales of our company’s securities by any director or employee. We do not have a policy that specifically prohibits our directors or executive officers from hedging the economic risk of share ownership. Compensation Committee Report The compensation committee has reviewed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis above and discussed it with management. Based on such review and discussions, the compensation committee recommended to our Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement. | | | Submitted by the Members of the Compensation Committee Miranda Curtis (chair) Paul A.

Aircraft Policy Our policy for the personal use of our aircraft by members of our Board, our CEO, or Chief Legal Officerother executive officers, including our NEOs, and such othercertain senior officers as may be approved by our CEO was established in 2018. The policy allows non-employee directors to use our aircraft for personal flights, subject to availability, without charge. The policy requires each user who is an officer to lease the corporate aircraft for personal use pursuant to an aircraft time sharing agreement and to pay us an amount equal to the aggregate incremental cost of each flight up to certain limits established under the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration rules. Incremental costs may include fuel, oil, lubricants and other additives, hangar and tie down costs away from aircraft home airport, travel expenses for crew, landing and parking fees, customs and immigration fees, insurance obtained for a specific flight, in-flight food and beverage services, ground transportation, de-icing fees and flight planning and weather contract services. With approval, family members or guests may join an executive or senior officer or director on a business flight without charge for these additional passengers. Also, on limited occasions, we may allow a business-related flight to land at an airport other than its destination to drop off or pick up a passenger for personal convenience without requiring reimbursement of our incremental cost. Pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Nair is allowed 50 annual flight hours for personal use of our aircraft. If Mr. Nair’s personal use of our aircraft exceeds 50 annual flight hours for a relevant calendar year, he will also be obligated to pay us the aggregate incremental cost of such usage over his allotted 50 annual flight hours. For U.S. tax reporting purposes, when family members or guests of a director or executive or senior officer travel on business flights, the value of such personal use, determined using a method based on SIFL rates as published by the IRS, is imputed as income to such director or executive or senior officer. A director or executive or senior officer will also have imputed income based on SIFL rates for a personal flight, less any amounts reimbursed to us. In accordance with applicable tax rules and regulations, such imputed income is included in taxable income for the applicable director or executive or senior officer. Notwithstanding the policy, we and the flight crew retain the authority to determine when a flight may be cancelled or changed for safety or maintenance reasons. Incentive Plans Effective December 29, 2017, our Board adopted the Incentive Plan, the Liberty Latin America 2018 Nonemployee Director Incentive Plan (the Director Plan) and the Liberty Latin America Transitional Share Conversion Plan (the Transition Plan). We may generally grant non-qualified share options, SARs, restricted shares, RSUs, cash awards, performance awards or any combination of the foregoing under either the Incentive Plan or the Director Plan. Common shares issuable pursuant to awards made under the Incentive Plan or the Director Plan will be made available from either authorized but unissued shares or shares that have been issued but reacquired by our company. These awards may be granted at or above fair value in any class of our common shares. The maximum number of common shares of Liberty Latin America with respect to which awards may be issued under the Incentive Plan and the Director Plan is 2575 million (of which no more than 10 million shares may consist of Class B common shares) and 5 million, respectively, in each case, subject to anti-dilution and other adjustment provisions in the respective plan. While awards of SARs were approved in late 2017 and not granted until January 2, 2018, as of December 31, 2017, no awards were outstanding under the Incentive Plan or the Director Plan. Prior to 2020, awards (other than performance-based awards) under the Incentive Plan are expected to generally (1) vest 12.5% on the six month anniversary of the grant date, and 6.25% quarterly thereafter and (2) expire seven years after
the grant date. Commencing inOur 2020 and 2021 awards (other than performance-based awards) under the Incentive Plan are expected to generally (1) vest 33.34% on the twelve month anniversary of the grant date and 33.33% yearly thereafterthereafter. SARs granted in 2020 expire seven years after the grant date, and (2)beginning in 2021, new SAR awards expire seventen years after the grant date. PSUs under the Incentive Plan are expected to bewere generally subject to a two-year performance period, other than the 2020 PSUs which had a one-year performance period, and vest subject to continued employment through the applicable vesting date during the year following the end of the performance period. Awards of RSUs under the Director Plan generally vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date, provided the director continues to serve as director immediately prior to the vesting date. In connection with the Split-Off, awards with respect to LiLAC Shares were automatically cancelled and replaced with awards with respect to our common shares. The Transition Plan was adopted to provide for these replacement grants. The maximum number of common shares of Liberty Latin America with respect to which awards may be issued under the Transition Plan is 10,116,012. Replacement awards under the Transition Plan are of the same class and number as, and remain subject, to all the terms and conditions of, the corresponding award of LiLAC Shares. Due to the automatic replacement of awards, as of December 31, 2019,2021, awards with respect to 6,722,5211,929,813 common shares were outstanding under the Transition Plan. The Incentive Plan and the Director Plan prohibit our compensation committee or Board, without prior shareholder approval, from repricing outstanding options or SARs. In addition, it is our policy that, except for anti-dilution adjustments
provided by the Incentive Plan and the Director Plan in connection with corporate transactions, the exercise or base price of common shares for any outstanding option or SAR granted under the Incentive Plan and the Director Plan will not be decreased after the date of grant nor will an outstanding option or SAR granted under the Incentive Plan or the Director Plan be surrendered to our company as consideration for the grant of a new option or SAR with a lower exercise or base price, cash or a new award unless there is prior approval by our shareholders. Any other action that is deemed to be a repricing under any applicable rule of Nasdaq shall be prohibited unless there is prior approval by our shareholders.
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan The Deferred Compensation Plan was approved by our compensation committee in March 2018 and became effective on May 1, 2018. Officers of Liberty LA, which include our NEOs, who are also U.S. taxpayers, may participate in the Deferred Compensation Plan. Each designated participant may elect to defer all or any portion of his or her (1) annual cash performance award, (2) annual salary up to limits specified by the compensation committee (currently 90%) and (3) award, if any, under a current or future multi-year performance award arrangement. Cash compensationCompensation deferred under the Deferred Compensation Plan prior to 2022 will be credited with interest initially at the rate of 8.5% per year, compounded daily (the credited interest fund). In setting the interest rate, our compensation committee reviews data on the implied yields of our significant bank debt and outstanding bonds, as well as credit market conditions. The compensation committee reserved the right to change the interest rate in the future, provided that any decreases in the rate will apply only to deferred elections that become irrevocable after the new rate is set.set, and in fact, reduced the interest rate to 8.0% per year, compounded daily, for compensation deferred in 2022. Deferred equity awards will not be credited with interest, but will be adjusted for splits, combinations, dividends or distributions. If the compensation committee approves the establishment of one or more phantom investment funds for purposes of the Deferred Compensation Plan, a participant may, but will not be obligated to, elect one or more of such phantom investment funds as the measurement fund for the purpose of calculating notional earnings, losses and other relevant amounts to be credited to or deducted from all or a portion of his or her deferred compensation instead of the credited interest fund.
The Deferred Compensation Plan provides our compensation committee with the discretion to terminate the Deferred Compensation Plan within 12 months of certain change in control events and distribute each participant’s account balance. Otherwise, the amount of compensation deferred will be distributed in a lump sum or in up to three installments upon the date or dates selected by the participant, or in up to five equal annual installments, or in a lump sum when the participant ceases to be an employee of our company. At the participant’s request, if the compensation committee determines that such participant has suffered a financial hardship, it may authorize immediate distribution of all or a portion of his or her account balance. The compensation committee has reserved the right to terminate the Deferred Compensation Plan at any time. Such an optional termination will not result in accelerated distributions. Our NEOs who are U.S. taxpayers are eligible to participate under the Deferred Compensation Plan. Messrs. Nair, Noyes, Winter, Kenigsztein and Khemka, each a U.S. taxpayer as of December 31, 2019,2021, have deferred compensation under
the Deferred Compensation Plan. The table below sets forth certain information concerning the deferred compensation of these officers at year end 2019.2021. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Name | | Company Plan | | Executive contributions in 2021 ($)(1) | | Registrant contributions in 2021 ($) | | Aggregate earnings in 2021 ($)(1) | | Aggregate withdrawals/ distributions ($) | | Aggregate balance at 12/31/21 ($)(1) | Balan Nair | | LLA | | 2,455,258 | | — | | 344,112 | | — | | 4,952,891 | | | LG(2) | | — | | — | | 466,852 | | 2,993,119 | | 4,007,668 | Christopher Noyes | | LLA | | 511,000 | | | | 34,218 | | — | | 545,218 | | | LG(2) | | — | | — | | — | | — | | — | John Winter | | LLA | | 664,300 | | — | | 44,484 | | — | | 708,784 | | | LG(2) | | — | | — | | 5,533 | | — | | 67,912 | Betzalel Kenigsztein | | LLA | | — | | — | | 27,243 | | 120,126 | | 327,662 | | | LG(2) | | — | | — | | — | | — | | — | Vivek Khemka | | LLA | | 445,258 | | — | | 37,145 | | | | 571,604 | | | LG(2) | | — | | — | | — | | — | | — |

(2) Prior to the Split-Off, Messrs. Nair and Winter were permitted to defer a portion of annual base salary and annual cash bonus under the LG Deferred Compensation Plan. Although such amounts relate to compensation while they were employed by Liberty Global prior to the Split-Off, we reimburse Liberty Global for the interest income that accrues on Messrs. Nair and Winter’s accounts under the LG Deferred Compensation Plan, which was initially set at 9% per year, compounded daily, for amounts deferred by Mr. Nair before 2017 and at 8.5% per year, compounded daily, for amounts deferred by Messrs. Nair and Winter during 2017.Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control The Termination of Employment Table and the Change in Control Table set forth below reflect the potential payments to our NEOs in connection with termination of their employment or a change in control of us as of December 31, 2019.2021. The Termination of Employment Table assumes that a change in control has not occurred. The Change in Control Table assumes that a change in control has occurred as of December 31, 2019.2021. Certain of our plans and agreements provide benefits upon the occurrence of a change in control without regard to whether employment is terminated, whereas others have a “double trigger” requiring employment to be terminated for benefits to be realized. These are separately reflected in the Change in Control Table.
The amounts provided in the tables are based on the assumptions stated below. The actual amounts may be different at the time of termination or change in control, as the case may be, due to various factors. In addition, we may enter into new arrangements or modify these arrangements from time to time. •Because the exercise price or base price of each NEO’s options or SARs, respectively, other than certain SARs granted in 2018,2020, was more than the closing market price of LILA and LILAK shares, as applicable, on December 31, 2019,2021, these options and SARs have been excluded from the tables below. The amounts in the tables for the unvested SARs granted in 20182020 that vest on an accelerated basis or continue to vest are based on the spread between the base price of the award and the applicable closing market price on December 31, 20192021 (the last trading day in 2019)2021). RSUs and PSUs that would vest on an accelerated basis or continue to vest are valued using the applicable closing market price on December 31, 2019.2021. On December 31, 2019,2021, the closing market price for LILA and LILAK shares was as follows: •LILA shares: $19.30$11.66 •LILAK shares: $19.46$11.40 The termination provisions of the Nair Agreement and of the employment agreements with each of our other NEOs are described under —Employment and Other Agreements above. The Incentive Plan and the Transition Plan are described under —Incentive Plans below. above. In addition to such descriptions, additional information on the termination and/or change in control provisions of these plans and agreements is provided below. The Deferred Compensation Plan provides that the amount of compensation deferred will be distributed in a lump sum or in up to three installments upon the date or dates selected by the participant, or in up to five equal annual installments, or in a lump sum when the participant ceases to be an employee of our company, including in each of the termination of employment scenarios described below. The Deferred Compensation Plan also provides for a payout of the account balance when a participant ceases to be an employee due to death or disability. Termination of Employment The availability of benefits under our plans or agreements varies with the reason employment terminates as described below. Voluntary Termination The executive would retain his vested equity grants under the incentive plans, which must be exercised within the period following termination prescribed by the applicable plan. See —Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End above for amounts
in respect of each NEO’s vested equity awards as of December 31, 2019.2021. There would be no other payments or benefits, except with respect to elections made under the Deferred Compensation Plan (as applicable). Retirement Except with respect to elections made under the Deferred Compensation Plan (as applicable), no benefits are payable to any of our NEOs in the event of retirement. However, under the Incentive Plan a person who retires with a combined age and years of service of 70 or greater will vest an additional year of unvested SARs and RSUs granted under this plan from the date of retirement. Such benefit is reflected in the “Retirement” column in the Termination of Employment Table below. The Phoenix Awards provide that if a person who retires with a combined age and years of service of 70 or greater, the compensation committee has the discretion to vest a prorated portion of the Phoenix Awards. Because this is discretionary, no amount in respect of the Phoenix Awards is reflected for that occurrence in the “Retirement” column in the Termination of Employment Table below for our NEOs. Termination for Cause The executive would not receive any payment or benefit, except with respect to elections made under the Deferred Compensation Plan (as applicable), and typically would forfeit all unexercised equity awards, whether or not vested. The definition of “cause” varies among the plans and agreements, but generally includes (1) dishonesty, incompetence or other misconduct, (2) failure to perform duties and (3) a felony conviction for fraud, embezzlement or other illegal conduct. For purposes of such a termination within 12 months following a change in control event, “cause” is defined to mean only a felony conviction for fraud, embezzlement or other illegal conduct.
Termination Without Cause The employment agreements entered into with our NEOs provide for benefits in the case of termination by our company without cause including severance equal to two times base salary for Mr. Nair and one times base salary for our other NEOs. See -EmploymentEmployment and Other Agreements above. Mr. Nair’s employment agreement provides for 12 months of continued vesting of his outstanding equity awards upon termination without cause, but the CEO SAR Award contains provisions that supersede his employment agreement.cause. Under the CEO SAR Award granted to Mr. Nair, he would be entitled to continued vesting for six months after termination without cause, and for SARs awarded to our other executives, the employee would be entitled to accelerated vesting of a pro rata portion of that amount of each award that would have vested on the next vesting date, based on the number of full months of the current vesting period that employment continued prior to termination. For the benefits payable under the applicable employment agreement or award agreement and the value of the prorated vesting of awards, if any, see the “By Company Without Cause” column in the Termination of Employment Table below. The PSUs provide that if termination of employment is without cause after June 30 of the first year of the performance period and prior to a change in control event, the compensation committee has the discretion to vest a portion of the earned PSUs determined similar to the provisions for disability as stated below. Because this is discretionary, no amount in respect of the 2018 PSUs or 2019 PSUs is reflected for that occurrence in the “By Company Without Cause” column in the Termination of Employment Table below for our NEOs. The RSUs provide that if termination of employment is without cause and occurs more than six months after the grant date, then the employee would be entitled to accelerated vesting of a pro rata portion of one-third of the unvested amount of each award that would have vested on the next vesting date, based on the number of full months of the current vesting period that employment continued prior to termination. Under the 2021 RSUs awarded to our other executives, if termination of employment is without cause and occurs after March 15, 2021, then the employee would be entitled to accelerated vesting of a pro rata portion of one-third of the unvested amount of each award that would have vested on the next vesting date, based on the number of full months of the current vesting period that employment continued prior to termination.The 2020 PSUs provide that if termination of employment is without cause after June 30, 2021 and prior to a change in control event, the compensation committee has the discretion to vest a portion of the earned 2020 PSUs determined similar to the provisions for disability as stated below. Because this is discretionary, no amount in respect of the 2020 PSUs is reflected for that occurrence in the “By Company Without Cause” column in the Termination of Employment Table below for our NEOs. The Phoenix Awards provide that if a person’s employment is terminated without cause, the compensation committee has the discretion to vest a prorated portion of the Phoenix Awards. The NEOs’ Phoenix Awards have been excluded from the “By Company Without Cause” column in the table below because the exercises prices exceeded the closing stock prices of our LILA and LILAK shares on December 31, 2021. The outstanding RSUs granted under the SHIP provide that if termination of employment is without cause, then the employee would be entitled to accelerated vesting of a pro rata portion of the unvested amount of the RSU award, based on the number of days of the current vesting period that employment continued prior to termination. With respect to the portion of Mr. Kenigsztein’s 2021 RSUs and 2021 SARs that were contingent on CWP’s achievement of certain financial goals, we have assumed that the compensation committee would exercise its discretion to cancel that portion of his awards as the financial goals for these awards were not satisfied. For the benefits payable under the applicable employment agreement or award agreement and the value of the prorated vesting of awards, if any, see the “By Company Without Cause” column in the Termination of Employment Table below. Death In the event of death, unless otherwise provided in another agreement, the Incentive Plan provides for vesting in full of any outstanding options or SARs, including the Phoenix Awards, and the lapse of restrictions on any restricted share or RSU awards. Under Mr. Nair’s employment agreement, and the CEO SAR Award, death does not result in immediate vesting, but any unvested equity awards upon death will continue to vest through the date that is six months after the date of termination of employment. Except with respect to Mr. Nair, theThe 2020 PSUs provide that, in the event of termination of employment due to death that occurs after June 30, of the first year of the performance period2021 and prior to a change in control during the performance period, the prorated portion of the grantee’s target 2020 PSUs, based on the portion of the performance period completed prior to the date of death, will vest. The treatmentperformance period for the 2020 PSUs was calendar year 2021, and based on our 2021 performance, the compensation committee determined that 111.4% of the target 2020 PSUs were earned. As a result, we have assumed that the compensation committee would exercise its discretion to determine that 111.4% of the target 2020 PSUs would vest in full in the event of his death. As a result, the “Death” column in the table below reflects the full value of the 2020 PSUs that were actually earned by Messrs. Nair, Noyes, Winter, Kenigsztein and Khemka. The NEOs’ Phoenix Awards have been excluded from the table below because the exercises prices exceeded the closing prices of our LILA shares and LILAK shares on December 31, 2021. The outstanding RSUs granted under the SHIP provide that if termination of employment occurs due to death, then the employee would be entitled to accelerated vesting of a pro rata portion of the unvested amount of the RSU award, based on the number of days of the current vesting period that employment continued prior to termination. With respect to the portion of Mr. Nair’s PSUs are governed byKenigsztein’s 2021 RSUs and 2021 SARs that were contingent on CWP’s achievement of certain financial goals, we have assumed that the award agreementscompensation committee would exercise its discretion to cancel that portion of his awards as modified by his employment agreement, which treats his date of termination as occurring six months after the original termination event, see - Employment and Other Agreements above. The underlying common shares will be issued no later than March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the date of death.financial goals for these awards were not satisfied. The value of all these benefits is in the “Death” column in the Termination of Employment Table. For this purpose, the amounts set forth in the table below assume that 100% of the target 2018 PSUs and 2019 PSUs would have been earned on a prorated basis as stated above. No amounts are shown for payments pursuant to life insurance policies, which we make available to all our salaried employees.
Disability In the event of termination of employment due to disability, unless otherwise provided in another agreement, the Incentive Plan provides for vesting in full of any outstanding options or SARs, including the Phoenix Awards, and the lapse of restrictions on any restricted share or RSU awards. Under Mr. Nair’s employment agreement, and the CEO SAR Award, disability does not result in immediate vesting, but any unvested equity awardawards upon termination due to disability will continue to vest through the date that is six months after the date of termination of employment. Except with respect to Mr. Nair under his employment agreement, theThe 2020 PSUs provide that, if termination of employment due to disability occurs after June 30, of the first year of the performance period2021 and prior to a change in control event during the performance period, the prorated portion of the grantee’s 2020 PSUs that would have been earned if the performance period had ended on December 31 of the year in which the disability occurred, will vest and the underlying common shares will be issued no later than March 15 of the following year. The treatmentoutstanding RSUs granted under the SHIP provide that if termination of employment occurs due to disability, then the employee would be
entitled to accelerated vesting of a pro rata portion of the unvested amount of the RSU award, based on the number of days of the current vesting period that employment continued prior to termination. With respect to the portion of Mr. Nair’s PSUs are governed byKenigsztein’s 2021 RSUs and 2021 SARs that were contingent on CWP’s achievement of certain financial goals, we have assumed that the award agreementscompensation committee would exercise its discretion to cancel that portion of his awards as modified by his employment agreement, which treats his date of termination as occurring six months after the original termination event, see -Employment and Other Agreements above. The value of allfinancial goals for these benefits is in the “Disability” column in the Termination of Employment Table. For this purpose, the amounts set forth in the table below assume that 100% of the target 2018 PSUs and 2019 PSUs would have been earned on a prorated basis as stated above.awards were not satisfied. No amounts are shown for payments pursuant to short-term and long-term disability policies, which we make available to all our employees. The NEOs’ Phoenix Awards have been excluded from the table below because the exercises prices exceeded the closing prices of our LILA shares and LILAK shares on December 31, 2021. For this purpose, the amounts set forth in the table below assume full vesting of the actual number of 2020 PSUs that were earned (111.4% of target) as determined by the compensation committee in February 2021. The value of all these benefits is in the “Disability” column in the Termination of Employment Table. For purposes of the Incentive Plan, SARs, the 2020 PSUs, the 2021 RSUs and the PSUs,Phoenix Awards, “disability” means the inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable condition that has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of at least 12 months or can be expected to result in death.death; provided, however, that with respect to Mr. Nair, the 2020 PSUs, 2021 RSUs and the Phoenix Awards defer to the definition of “disability” in his employment agreement. For purposes of Mr. Nair’s employment agreement, “disability” means his qualification for benefits under our long-term disability plan. Resignation for Good Reason The employment agreements with our NEOs provide for benefits in the case of resignation for good reason. See -Employment-Employment and Other Agreements above. Under the 2020 PSUs, the compensation committee has the discretion to vest a portion of the 2020 PSUs similar to the discretionary benefits payable upon termination by our company without cause. Except with respect to Mr. Nair, the compensation committee has the discretion to vest a portion of the RSUs upon a termination for good reason. Otherwise, no payment or benefit is required upon resignation by an executive for good reason absent a change in control. With respect to the portion of Mr. Kenigsztein’s 2021 RSUs and 2021 SARs that were contingent on CWP’s achievement of certain financial goals, we have assumed that the compensation committee would exercise its discretion to cancel that portion of his awards as the financial goals for these awards were not satisfied. The other benefits payable for termination due to good reason under the employment agreements with our NEOs are the same as the benefits payable upon a termination by our company without cause. Good reason includes the assignment of duties materially inconsistent with the NEOs position, authority, duties or responsibilities or an action by us that results in a material diminution in his position, authority, duties or responsibilities, a material breach of the employment agreement by us, a reduction in his base salary or target annual bonus opportunity or relocation of his principal place of employment from the Denver area or, in the case of Ms. Lorenzo and Mr. Kenigsztein, Panama City, Panama. See the “By Company Without Cause” column in the Termination of Employment Table below. No amount is reflected for the PSUs because any benefit for termination by grantee for good reason is discretionary.

(1) Each of Mr. Nair, Mr. Noyes, Mr. Winter, Mr. Kenigsztein and Mr. Khemka had the right to file an election at the time of his initial deferral to receive distributions under the Deferred Compensation Plan and the LG Deferred Compensation Plan upon his separation from service, including under the termination scenarios in the table above. For purposes of the tabular presentation above, we have assumed that each of Mr. Nair, Mr. Noyes, Mr. Winter, Mr. Kenigsztein and Mr. Khemka has elected to receive a lump sum payout of the account balance in the Deferred Compensation Plan upon a termination without cause at our company or retirement from our company. The Deferred Compensation Plan and the LG Deferred Compensation Plan each provides for a payout of the account balance when a participant ceases to be an employee due to death or disability. (2) Our U.S.-based executives would be entitled to maintenance of health benefits for them and their dependents during the 12-month period following his termination. For Mr. Nair, this amount represents the full estimated cost of providing this benefit to him and his dependents. For Messrs. Noyes and Winter, these amounts represents the company’s portion of the cost of providing this benefit to the NEO and his respective dependents, assuming payment of premiums by the NEO. (3) We have assumed that the compensation committee would exercise its discretion to cancel Mr. Kenigsztein’s 2021 RSUs and 2021 SARs that were contingent on CWP’s achievement of certain financial goals as those goals were not satisfied.

Change in Control The Incentive Plan, the 2020 PSUs and the CEO SAR AwardPhoenix Awards each provide for various benefits either upon the occurrence of specified change in control events or upon termination of employment following a change in control event. Change in Control Events The change in control events vary under the relevant arrangements but generally fall into three categories: | | 1. | A person or entity, subject to specified exceptions, acquires beneficial ownership of at least 20% of the combined voting power of our outstanding securities ordinarily having the right to vote in the election of directors in a transaction that has not been approved by our Board. We refer to this change in control event as an “Unapproved Control Purchase.” |
| | 2. | During any two-year period, persons comprising the Board at the beginning of the period cease to be a majority of the board, unless the new directors were nominated or appointed by two-thirds of the continuing original directors. We refer to this change in control event as a “Board Change.” |
| | 3. | Our Board approves certain transactions such as (a) a merger, consolidation or binding share exchange that results in the shareholders of our company prior to the transaction owning less than a majority of the combined voting power of our capital stock after the transaction or in which our common shares are converted into cash, securities or other property, subject to certain exceptions, (b) a plan of liquidation of our company, or (c) a sale of substantially all the assets of our company. We refer to this change in control event as a “Reorganization.” |
1. A person or entity, subject to specified exceptions, acquires beneficial ownership of at least 20% of the combined voting power of our outstanding securities ordinarily having the right to vote in the election of directors in a transaction that has not been approved by our Board. We refer to this change in control event as an “Unapproved Control Purchase.” 2. During any two-year period, persons comprising the Board at the beginning of the period cease to be a majority of the Board, unless the new directors were nominated or appointed by two-thirds of the continuing original directors. We refer to this change in control event as a “Board Change.” 3. Our Board approves certain transactions such as (a) a merger, consolidation or binding share exchange that results in the shareholders of our company prior to the transaction owning less than a majority of the combined voting power of our capital stock after the transaction or in which our common shares are converted into cash, securities or other property, subject to certain exceptions, (b) a plan of liquidation of our company, or (c) a sale of substantially all the assets of our company. We refer to this change in control event as a “Reorganization.” Under the Incentive Plan, outstanding equity awards will vest in full upon the occurrence of an Unapproved Control Purchase or Board Change and immediately prior to consummation of a Reorganization, unless, in the case of a Reorganization, the compensation committee determines that effective provision has been made for the award to be assumed or replaced with an equivalent award. The 2020 PSUs provide that if any of these change in control events occurs during the performance period and the grant agreements are not continued on the same terms and conditions, in the case of a Board Change or Unapproved Control Purchase, or not continued or assumed on equivalent terms, in the case of a Reorganization, then each grantee will be deemed to have earned his target 2020 PSUs, which will vest. The underlying common shares will be issued within 30 days of such change in control event, or immediately prior to a Reorganization. If the grant agreements for the 2020 PSUs are continued or assumed, then each grantee will be deemed to have earned his target 2020 PSUs or earned 2020 PSUs, which will be converted to time-vested RSUs subject to service and vesting requirements in accordance with the grant agreement. The Phoenix Awards will also fully vest if a Board Change or Unapproved Control Purchase occurs, subject to the compensation committee’s discretion to reduce the number of PSARs that vest based on the employee’s performance. For purposes of the table below, the NEOs’ Phoenix Awards have been excluded because the exercises prices exceeded the closing prices of our LILA shares and LILAK shares on December 31, 2021. The Deferred Compensation Plan provides our compensation committee with the discretion to terminate the Deferred Compensation Plan within 12 months of certain change in control events and distribute each participant’s account balance. Termination After Change in Control The 2020 PSUs provide that, if a change in control event occurs that does not result in accelerated vesting of such awards, a subsequent termination of employment will accelerate vesting of the earned 2020 PSUs if the termination is due to death or disability or is without cause or the participant resigns for good reason. The common shares underlying the vested 2020 PSUs will be issued no later than March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the termination occurred. If the SAR awards including the CEO SAR Award, are continued after a Reorganization, the awards provide for full vesting if the executive is terminated by us without cause or resigns with good reason within twelve months after the Reorganization.Reorganization, or if later, within the expiration of a 30-day cure period that began once the executive provided written notice of an event giving rise to good reason.
The Phoenix Awards also provide for full vesting if the executive is terminated by us without cause or resigns with good reason within twelve months after the Reorganization, or if later, the first day following the expiration of a 30-day cure period that began once the executive provided written notice of an event giving rise to good reason; provided, however, that the compensation committee has the discretion to reduce the number of PSARs that vest based on the employee’s
performance. For purposes of the table below, the NEOs’ Phoenix Awards have been excluded because the exercises prices exceeded the closing prices of our LILA shares and LILAK shares on December 31, 2021. For purposes of each of the 2020 PSUs, the Phoenix Awards and the SAR awards, other than the CEO SAR Award, “good reason” for a participant to resign following a change in control event requires that one of the following has occurred without the consent of the participant: (1) a material diminution in the participant’s base compensation; (2) a material diminution of his or her official position or authority; or (3) a required relocation of his or her principal business office to a different country. For purposes of the CEO SAR Award, “good reason” has the meaning set forth in Mr. Nair’s employment agreement. Additional procedural requirements apply for a resignation to qualify as being for “good reason.” The “Employment Terminated” columns assume that the executive’s employment is terminated as of December 31, 2019,2021, without cause and include the incremental benefits that would result from such a termination under the employment agreements and equity incentive plans as described under —Termination of Employment above. 280G Tax Gross-Up. Our NEOs have agreed in their employment agreements to waive any rights they would have under any equity or other agreements to any 280G tax gross-up payment from us or Liberty LA. The grant agreements for the 2020 PSUs impose a cap that applies if a benefit is triggered due to a change-of-control event that would be subject to an excise tax pursuant to Section 280G of the Code. Under the 2020 PSUs, if the excise tax can be avoided through a reduction in the amount of “parachute payments” (as defined in Section 280G) required to be provided to the grantee with respect to the 2020 PSUs, then the amount of “parachute payments” shall automatically be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to avoid the excise tax. For purposes of the change-of-control events in the table below, we have assumed that the amounts payable to the NEOs would not exceed the threshold that would subject such amounts to excise taxes pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and that no parachute cap would apply.

(4) We have assumed that the compensation committee would exercise its discretion to cancel Mr. Kenigsztein’s 2021 RSUs and 2021 SARs that were contingent on CWP’s achievement of certain financial goals as those goals were not satisfied. CEO Pay Ratio We are a global company that employs approximately 11,00011,900 people (on a full-time long-term contractors and part-time equivalent basis at year-end 2019)2021) in over 20 countries,approximately 40 markets, with a majority of our work force located outside the U.S. We strive to ensure that every employee is paid at a level reflective of their job responsibilities and is competitive within our peer group and the respective country and local employment markets. We are committed to providing pay equity throughout our company, which we view as critical to our success in supporting a diverse workforce with opportunities for employees to develop, advance and contribute.
Under the rules adopted pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010, we are required to provide the total compensation paid to our median employee, as well as the ratio of the total compensation paid to such median employee as compared to the total compensation paid to our CEO. For the year ended December 31, 2019:2021: •The annual total compensation of the employee identified as the median of our company (other than our CEO) was $42,930.$35,621. •The annual total compensation of the CEO for purposes of determining the CEO Pay Ratio was $12,582,255.$37,576,803. Based on the above, our 2021 CEO to median employee pay ratio is 1,055:1. Excluding our CEO’s Phoenix Award, which had a grant date fair value of approximately $22.0 million, our CEO to median employee pay ratio is 293:becomes 437:1. This pay ratio is a reasonablean estimate calculated in a manner consistent with the SEC rules based on the methodology described below. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices. As a result, the pay ratio reported by other
companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios. The same median employee was used for 2019, as allowed under Regulation S-K item 402(u), which allows companies to use the same median employee (or comparable employee) for up to three years, with refreshed compensation data for the median employee for the respective reporting year if a company’s compensations programs for its employee population has not significantly changed. WeFor 2021, we identified our median employee by collecting payroll data of our employee population on OctoberDecember 31, 2018,2021, consisting of salary and wages (including overtime) and annual bonus amounts. At that time, our employee population consisted 3.8%2.97% U.S. employees and 96.2%97.03% non-U.S. employees. Approximately 300 employees in five countries were excluded in Nicaragua, St. Vincent, Montserrat, Curacao and Honduras as allowed under the de minimis exception to the SEC rules. We annualized the compensation of all newly hired permanent and part-time employees. We did not perform any other adjustments. After identifying the median employee, for purposes of the pay ratio, we calculated the median employee’s total annual compensation in accordance with the requirements of the Summary Compensation table.
Director Compensation Set forth below is a description of the compensation for our nonemployee directors. Our directors are also entitled to the benefit of our policy on personal usage of our aircraft set forth above under —Aircraft Policy. Fees and Expenses Each member of our Board who is not an employee of Liberty Latin America (other than our Executive Chairman, Mr. Fries), received an annual retainer of $75,000. In 2019, Mr. Sanchez received a prorated portion of this annual retainer, as he joined the Board on December 12, 2019. For 2020, this annual retainer increased to $100,000. Each director who serves as the chair of the audit committee or the compensation committee receives a fee for such service of $20,000, and each other director who serves as a member of the audit committee or the compensation committee receives $10,000, in each case for each full year of service in such position. We do not pay any additional fees for service on our nominating and corporate governance committee. All annual director fees, including fees for chairpersons, are payable in arrears in four equal quarterly installments. Our directors may elect to have their quarterly fee installments paid in common shares instead of in cash. Such election for fees payable for a specific calendar quarter must be made not later than the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter and consist of a combination of LILA and LILAK shares. The number of shares issued is based on the fair market value on the last trading day of the quarter for which the election is made. Any fractional share is paid in cash. Currently, our President and CEO, Mr. Nair, does not receive any additional compensation for his service as a director. During his tenure as a member of our Board, we did not pay any compensation to Mr. Malone, except that, prior to the Split-Off, our then board authorized the payment or reimbursement of personal expenses incurred by Mr. Malone of up to $500,000 per year related to his ownership of our shares. These expenses included professional fees and other expenses incurred by Mr. Malone for estate or tax planning, regulatory filings and other services.
Generally, we expect to reimburse our non-executive directors for travel, lodging and other reasonable expenses related to their service on our Board and related committees. From time to time, we expect to provide our directors information on conferences and seminars that may be of interest to them as a director of Liberty Latin America. For directors who elect to attend these events, we expect to cover the costs as part of our policy to keep members of our Board informed on issues that relate to their duties as a director. In addition, we make available to members of our Board, at their election, health insurance under our health insurance policies. Equity Awards Annually, eachEach of our current non-executive directors receives an annual equity award under the Director Plan with a combined grant date fair value of $125,000 awarded in the form of a grant of LILA RSUs and a grant of LILAK RSUs in a one for two ratio. In 2018, theratio, with a combined grant date fair value of this award was increased by $42,000 to reflect service$150,000 for the first four months of 2018.2021. For 2020, the directors’ annual equity awards, except for Mr. Nair, increased to$150,000. For 2020,2021, our Executive Chairman, Mr. Fries, will earnearned an equity award with a combined grant date fair value of $475,000 awarded in the form of a grant of LILA RSUs and a grant of LILAK RSUs in a one for two ratio. In 2019, Mr. Sanchez received an equity award with a grant date fair value of $42,000, in the form of a grant of LILA RSUs and LILAK RSUs in a one for two ratio, to reflect service for the last month of 2019 and the first three months of 2020. Such awards for Mr. Sanchez vested in full on April 1, 2020. The director
RSUs are made at the same time the annual SAR grants are made to our employees under the annual incentive plan. The awards of RSUs vest in full on the date of the first anniversary of the date of grant.
Deferred Compensation Plan At its February 21, 2020 meeting, our compensation committee adopted the Liberty Latin America Ltd. Nonemployee Director Deferred Compensation Plan, effective March 1, 2020 (the Director Deferred Compensation Plan). Under the Director Deferred Compensation Plan, beginning with deferral elections for the second quarter of 2020 and after, non-executive directors may elect to defer payment of up to 85% of their annual retainer and their annual equity awards to the extent payable in restricted shares or RSUs. Annual retainers payable in cash and deferred under the Director Deferred Compensation Plan prior to 2022 will be credited with interest at the rate of 8.5% per year, compounded daily (the credited interest fund). Our Board reserved the right to change the interest rate in the future, provided that any decreases in the rate will apply only to deferred elections that become irrevocable after the new rate is set.set, and in fact, reduced the interest rate to 8.0% per year, compounded daily, for compensation deferred in 2022. Annual equity awards payable in restricted shares or RSUs that are deferred will not be credited with interest, but will be adjusted for splits, combinations, dividends or distributions (the stock fund). The deferred annual retainers and deferred equity awards may be distributed in a lump sum or in a series of up to two annual installments upon a distribution event. A distribution event is when (1) the director ceases to be a member of our Board or dies, or (2) at the election of our Board, within 12 months of certain change in control events, or (3) a specific date is selected by the director at the time he or she makes hisa deferral election. The Director Deferred Compensation Plan provides our Board with the discretion to terminate the Director Deferred Compensation Plan at any time. This optional termination will not result in accelerated distributions. 2019

Appendix A
LIBERTY LATIN AMERICA EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
1.Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to provide employees of the Company and its Designated Companies with an opportunity to purchase Common Shares through accumulated Contributions. The Company intends for the Plan to have two components: a component that is intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code (the “423 Component”) and a component that is not intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code (the “Non-423 Component”). The provisions of the 423 Component, accordingly, will be construed so as to extend and limit Plan participation in a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis consistent with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code. An option to purchase Common Shares under the Non-423 Component will be granted pursuant to rules, procedures, or sub-plans adopted by the Administrator designed to achieve tax, securities laws, or other objectives for Eligible Employees and the Company. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Non-423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component. 2.Definitions. a.“423 Component” is defined in Section 1 of the Plan. b.“Administrator” means the Board or any Committee designated by the Board to administer the Plan pursuant to Section 14. c.“Affiliate” of the Company means any corporation, partnership or other business association that, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. For purposes of the preceding sentence, “control” (including, with correlative meanings, the terms “controlled by” and “under common control with”), as used with respect to any entity or organization, shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power (i) to vote more than 50% of the securities having ordinary voting power for the election of directors of the controlled entity or organization, or (ii) to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the controlled entity or organization, whether through the ownership of voting securities or by contract or otherwise. d.“Applicable Laws” means the requirements relating to the administration of equity-based awards under U.S. state corporate laws, U.S. federal and state securities laws, the Code, any stock exchange or quotation system on which the Common Shares is listed or quoted and the applicable laws of any foreign country or jurisdiction where options are, or will be, granted under the Plan. e.“Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company. f.“Change in Control” means an “Approved Transaction,” “Board Change,” or “Control Purchase” as defined in the Liberty Latin America 2018 Incentive Plan or any successor plan thereto, in each case, as amended from time to time. g.“Code” means the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Reference to a specific section of the Code will include such section, any valid regulation or other official applicable guidance promulgated under such section, and any comparable provision of any future legislation or regulation amending, supplementing or superseding such section or regulation. h.“Committee” means a committee of the Board appointed in accordance with Section 14 hereof. i.“Common Shares” means the Class C common shares of the Company. j.“Company” means Liberty Latin America Ltd., an exempted Bermuda company limited by shares, or any successor thereto.
k.“Compensation” means an Eligible Employee’s after-tax base pay or wages. The Administrator, in its discretion, may, on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis, establish a different definition of Compensation for a subsequent Offering Period. l.“Contributions” means the payroll deductions and other additional payments that the Company may permit to be made by a Participant to fund the exercise of options granted pursuant to the Plan. m.“Designated Company” means any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company that has been designated by the Administrator from time to time in its sole discretion as eligible to participate in the Plan. For purposes of the 423 Component, only the Company and its Subsidiaries may be Designated Companies, provided, however that at any given time, a Subsidiary that is a Designated Company under the 423 Component will not be a Designated Company under the Non-423 Component. n.“Director” means a member of the Board. o.“Eligible Employee” means any individual who is a common law employee providing services to the Company or a Designated Company and is customarily employed for at least twenty (20) hours per week, or any lesser number of hours per week established by the Administrator for purposes of any separate Offering or the Non-423 Component. The Administrator, in its discretion, from time to time may, prior to an Enrollment Date for all options to be granted on such Enrollment Date in an Offering, determine (on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis or as otherwise permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2) that the definition of Eligible Employee will or will not include an individual if he or she: (i) has not completed at least two (2) years of service since his or her last hire date (or such lesser period of time as may be determined by the Administrator in its discretion), (ii) customarily works not more than twenty (20) hours per week (or such lesser period of time as may be determined by the Administrator in its discretion), (iii) customarily works not more than five (5) months per calendar year (or such lesser period of time as may be determined by the Administrator in its discretion), (iv) is a highly compensated employee within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code, or (v) is a highly compensated employee within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code with compensation above a certain level or is an officer or subject to the disclosure requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, provided the exclusion is applied with respect to each Offering in an identical manner to all highly compensated individuals of the Employer whose Eligible Employees are participating in that Offering.

If for any day the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Shares is not determinable by any of the foregoing means, then the Fair Market Value for such day shall be determined in good faith by the Administrator on the basis of such quotations and other considerations as the Administrator deems appropriate.
The determination of fair market value for purposes of tax withholding may be made in the Administrator’s discretion subject to Applicable Laws and is not required to be consistent with the determination of Fair Market Value for other purposes. u.“Fiscal Year” means a fiscal year of the Company. v.“New Exercise Date” means a new Exercise Date if the Administrator shortens any Offering Period then in progress. w.“Offering” means an offer under the Plan of an option that may be exercised during an Offering Period as further described in Section 4. For purposes of the Plan, the Administrator may designate separate Offerings under the Plan (the terms of which need not be identical) in which Eligible Employees of one or more Employers will participate, even if the dates of the applicable Offering Periods of each such Offering are identical and the provisions of the Plan will separately apply to each Offering. To the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(a)(1), the terms of each Offering need not be identical provided that the terms of the Plan and an Offering together satisfy U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(a)(2) and (a)(3). x.“Offering Periods” means the periods of approximately six (6) months during which an option granted pursuant to the Plan may be exercised, commencing on the first Trading Day on or after January 1 and July 1 of each year and terminating on the last Trading Day on or before June 30 and December 31, approximately six (6) months later. The duration and timing of Offering Periods may be changed pursuant to Sections 4, 20 and 30. y.“Parent” means a “parent corporation,” whether now or hereafter existing, as defined in Section 424(e) of the Code. z.“Participant” means an Eligible Employee that participates in the Plan. aa.“Plan” means this Liberty Latin America Employee Stock Purchase Plan. bb. “Purchase Period” means the periods during an Offering Period during which Common Shares may be purchased on a Participant’s behalf in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

Trading Day” means a day on which the national stock exchange upon which the Common Shares are listed is open for trading. ff. “U.S. Treasury Regulations” means the Treasury regulations of the Code. Reference to a specific Treasury Regulation will include such Treasury Regulation, the section of the Code under which such regulation was promulgated, and any comparable provision of any future legislation or regulation amending, supplementing, or superseding such Section or regulation. 3.Eligibility. a.General. Any individual who is an Eligible Employee on a given Enrollment Date will be eligible to participate in the Plan, subject to the requirements of Section 5.
b.Non-U.S. Employees. Eligible Employees who are citizens or residents of a non-U.S. jurisdiction (without regard to whether they also are citizens or residents of the United States or resident aliens (within the meaning of Section 7701(b)(1)(A) of the Code)) may be excluded from participation in the Plan or an Offering if the participation of such Eligible Employees is prohibited under the laws of the applicable jurisdiction or if complying with the laws of the applicable jurisdiction would cause the Plan or an Offering to violate Section 423 of the Code. In the case of the Non-423 Component, Eligible Employees may be excluded from participation in the Plan or an Offering if the Administrator determines that participation of such Eligible Employees is not advisable or practicable. c.Limitations. Any provisions of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no Eligible Employee will be granted an option under the Plan (i) to the extent that, immediately after the grant, such Eligible Employee (or any other person whose stock would be attributed to such Eligible Employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) would own capital stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company and/or hold outstanding options to purchase such stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of the capital stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, or (ii) to the extent that his or her rights to purchase stock under all employee stock purchase plans (as defined in Section 423 of the Code) of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company accrues at a rate, which exceeds twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) worth of stock (determined at the Fair Market Value of the stock at the time such option is granted) for each calendar year in which such option is outstanding at any time, as determined in accordance with Section 423 of the Code and the regulations thereunder. 4.Offering Periods. The Plan will be implemented by consecutive Offering Periods with a new Offering Period commencing on the first Trading Day on or after January 1 and July 1 each year, or on such other dates as the Administrator will determine. The Administrator will have the power to change the duration of Offering Periods (including the commencement dates thereof) with respect to future Offerings without shareholder approval if such change is announced prior to the scheduled beginning of the first Offering Period to be affected thereafter; provided, however, that no Offering Period may last more than twenty-seven (27) months. 5.Participation. An Eligible Employee may participate in the Plan by (i) submitting to the Company’s designee a properly completed subscription agreement authorizing Contributions in the form provided by the Administrator for such purpose or (ii) following an electronic or other enrollment procedure determined by the Administrator, in either case on or before a date determined by the Administrator prior to an applicable Enrollment Date. 6.Contributions. a.At the time a Participant enrolls in the Plan pursuant to Section 5, he or she will elect to have Contributions (in the form of payroll deductions or otherwise, to the extent permitted by the Administrator) made on each pay day during the Offering Period in an amount not exceeding fifteen percent (15%) of the Compensation that he or she receives on the pay day (for illustrative purposes, should a pay day occur on an Exercise Date, a Participant will have any Contributions made on such day applied to his or her account under the then-current Purchase Period or Offering Period). The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may permit all Participants in a specified Offering to contribute amounts to the Plan through payment by cash, check or other means set forth in the subscription agreement prior to each Exercise Date of each Purchase Period. A Participant’s subscription agreement will remain in effect for successive Offering Periods unless terminated as provided in Section 10 hereof. b.In the event Contributions are made in the form of payroll deductions, such payroll deductions for a Participant will commence on the first pay day following the Enrollment Date and will end on the last pay day on or prior to the last Exercise Date of such Offering Period to which such authorization is applicable, unless sooner terminated by the Participant as provided in Section 10 hereof; provided, however, that for the first Offering Period, payroll deductions will commence on the first pay day on or following the end of the Enrollment Window.
c.All Contributions made for a Participant will be credited to his or her account under the Plan and Contributions will be made in whole percentages of his or her Compensation only. A Participant may not make any additional payments into such account. d.A Participant may discontinue his or her participation in the Plan as provided under Section 10. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, during an Offering Period, a Participant may not increase or decrease the rate of his or her Contributions. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, amend the nature and/or number of Contribution rate changes that may be made by Participants during any Offering Period or Purchase Period and may establish other conditions or limitations as it deems appropriate for Plan administration. e.Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(d), a Participant’s Contributions may be decreased to zero percent (0%) at any time during an Offering Period. Subject to Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(d) hereof, Contributions will recommence at the rate originally elected by the Participant effective as of the beginning of the first Offering Period scheduled to begin in the following calendar year, unless terminated by the Participant as provided in Section 10. f.Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in the Plan, the Administrator may allow Participants to participate in the Plan via cash contributions instead of payroll deductions if (i) payroll deductions are not permitted under applicable local law, (ii) the Administrator determines that cash contributions are permissible under Section 423 of the Code; or (iii) the Participants are participating in the Non-423 Component. g.At the time the option is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time some or all of the Common Shares issued under the Plan is disposed of (or any other time that a taxable event related to the Plan occurs), the Participant must make adequate provision for the Company’s or Employer’s federal, state, local or any other tax liability payable to any authority including taxes imposed by jurisdictions outside of the U.S., national insurance, social security or other tax withholding obligations, if any, which arise upon the exercise of the option or the disposition of the Common Shares (or any other time that a taxable event related to the Plan occurs). At any time, the Company or the Employer may, but will not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s compensation the amount necessary for the Company or the Employer to meet applicable withholding obligations, including any withholding required to make available to the Company or the Employer any tax deductions or benefits attributable to sale or early disposition of Common Shares by the Eligible Employee. In addition, the Company or the Employer may, but will not be obligated to, withhold from the proceeds of the sale of Common Shares or any other method of withholding the Company or the Employer deems appropriate to the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(f). 7.Grant of Option. On the Enrollment Date of each Offering Period, each Eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period will be granted an option to purchase on each Exercise Date during such Offering Period (at the applicable Purchase Price) up to a number of Common Shares determined by dividing such Eligible Employee’s Contributions accumulated prior to such Exercise Date and retained in the Eligible Employee’s account as of the Exercise Date by the applicable Purchase Price; provided that in no event will an Eligible Employee be permitted to purchase during each calendar year more than 2,500 Common Shares (subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 19) and provided further that such purchase will be subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 3(d) and 13. The Eligible Employee may accept the grant of such option (by electing to participate in the Plan in accordance with the requirements of Section 5. The Administrator may, for future Offering Periods, increase or decrease, in its absolute discretion, the maximum number of Common Shares that an Eligible Employee may purchase during each Purchase Period or calendar year. Exercise of the option will occur as provided in Section 8, unless the Participant has withdrawn pursuant to Section 10. The option will expire on the last day of the Offering Period. 8.Exercise of Option. a.Unless a Participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 10, his or her option for the purchase of Common Shares will be exercised automatically on each Exercise Date, and the maximum number of full shares subject to the option will be purchased for such Participant at the applicable Purchase Price with the accumulated Contributions from his or her account. No fractional
Common Shares will be purchased; any Contributions accumulated in a Participant’s account, which are not sufficient to purchase a full share will be retained in the Participant’s account for the subsequent Purchase Period or Offering Period, subject to earlier withdrawal by the Participant as provided in Section 10. Any other funds left over in a Participant’s account after the Exercise Date will be returned to the Participant. During a Participant’s lifetime, a Participant’s option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by him or her. b.If the Administrator determines that, on a given Exercise Date, the number of Common Shares with respect to which options are to be exercised may exceed (i) the number of Common Shares that were available for sale under the Plan on the Enrollment Date of the applicable Offering Period, or (ii) the number of Common Shares available for sale under the Plan on such Exercise Date, the Administrator may in its sole discretion (x) provide that the Company will make a pro rata allocation of the Common Shares available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as will be practicable and as it will determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all Participants exercising options to purchase Common Shares on such Exercise Date, and continue all Offering Periods then in effect or (y) provide that the Company will make a pro rata allocation of the Common Shares available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as will be practicable and as it will determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all participants exercising options to purchase Common Shares on such Exercise Date, and terminate any or all Offering Periods then in effect pursuant to Section 20. The Company may make a pro rata allocation of the shares available on the Enrollment Date of any applicable Offering Period pursuant to the preceding sentence, notwithstanding any authorization of additional shares for issuance under the Plan by the Company’s shareholders subsequent to such Enrollment Date. 9.Delivery. As soon as reasonably practicable after each Exercise Date on which a purchase of Common Shares occurs, the Company will arrange the delivery to each Participant of the shares purchased upon exercise of his or her option in a form determined by the Administrator (in its sole discretion) and pursuant to rules established by the Administrator. The Company may permit or require that shares be deposited directly with a broker designated by the Company or to a designated agent of the Company, and the Company may utilize electronic or automated methods of share transfer. The Company may require that shares be retained with such broker or agent for a designated period of time and/or may establish other procedures to permit tracking of disqualifying dispositions of such shares. No Participant will have any voting, dividend, or other shareholder rights with respect to Common Shares subject to any option granted under the Plan until such shares have been purchased and delivered to the Participant as provided in this Section 9. 10.Withdrawal. a.A Participant may withdraw all but not less than all the Contributions credited to his or her account and not yet used to exercise his or her option under the Plan prior to the last thirty (30) days of the applicable Offering Period by (i) submitting to the Company’s stock administration office (or its designee) a written notice of withdrawal in the form determined by the Administrator for such purpose (which may be similar to the form attached hereto as Exhibit B), or (ii) following an electronic or other withdrawal procedure determined by the Administrator; provided, that a Participant may not withdraw during any blackout period applicable to such Participant. All of the Participant’s Contributions credited to his or her account will be paid to such Participant as soon as administratively feasible after receipt of notice of withdrawal and such Participant’s option for the Offering Period will be automatically terminated, and no further Contributions for the purchase of shares will be made for such Offering Period. b.A Participant’s withdrawal from an Offering Period will not have any effect on his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan that may hereafter be adopted by the Company or in succeeding Offering Periods that commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the Participant withdraws, except that he or she will not be permitted to participate in the immediately subsequent Offering Period unless otherwise determined by the Administrator. If a Participant withdraws from an Offering Period, Contributions will not resume at the beginning of any succeeding Offering Period, unless the Participant re-enrolls in the Plan in accordance with the provisions of Section 5. 11.Termination of Employment. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, upon a Participant’s ceasing to be an Eligible Employee, for any reason, he or she will be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan and the Contributions credited to such Participant’s account during the Offering Period but
not yet used to purchase Common Shares under the Plan will be returned to such Participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under Section 15, and such Participant’s option will be automatically terminated. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, a Participant whose employment transfers between entities through a termination with an immediate rehire (with no break in service) by the Company or a Designated Company will not be treated as terminated under the Plan; however, if a Participant transfers from an Offering under the 423 Component to the Non-423 Component, the exercise of the option will be qualified under the 423 Component only to the extent it complies with Section 423 of the Code, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator. 12.Interest. No interest will accrue on the Contributions of a participant in the Plan, except as may be required by Applicable Law, as determined by the Company, and if so required by the laws of a particular jurisdiction, will apply to all Participants in the relevant Offering under the 423 Component, except to the extent otherwise permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(f). 13.Stock. a.Subject to adjustment upon changes in capitalization of the Company as provided in Section 19 hereof, the maximum number of Common Shares that will be made available for sale under the Plan will be 2,000,000 Common Shares. The number of Common Shares available for issuance under the Plan will be increased on the first day of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2023 in a number of shares equal to the least of (i) 500,000 Common Shares (subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 19), (ii) one percent (1%) of the outstanding shares of all classes of the Company’s Common Shares on the last day of the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, or (iii) an amount determined by the Administrator. b.Until the Common Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), a Participant will have only the rights of an unsecured creditor with respect to such shares, and no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder will exist with respect to such shares. c.Common Shares to be delivered to a Participant under the Plan will be registered in the name of the Participant or in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse. 14.Administration. The Plan will be administered by the Board or a Committee appointed by the Board, which Committee will be constituted to comply with Applicable Laws. The Administrator will have full and exclusive discretionary authority to construe, interpret and apply the terms of the Plan, to delegate ministerial duties to any of the Company’s employees, to designate separate Offerings under the Plan, to designate Subsidiaries and Affiliates of the Company as participating in the 423 Component or Non-423 Component, to determine eligibility, to adjudicate all disputed claims filed under the Plan and to establish such procedures that it deems necessary for the administration of the Plan (including, without limitation, to adopt such procedures and sub-plans as are necessary or appropriate to permit the participation in the Plan by employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside the U.S., the terms of which sub-plans may take precedence over other provisions of this Plan, with the exception of Section 13(a) hereof, but unless otherwise superseded by the terms of such sub-plan, the provisions of this Plan will govern the operation of such sub-plan). Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the Eligible Employees eligible to participate in each sub-plan will participate in a separate Offering or in the Non-423 Component. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator is specifically authorized to adopt rules and procedures regarding eligibility to participate, the definition of Compensation, handling of Contributions, making of Contributions to the Plan (including, without limitation, in forms other than payroll deductions), establishment of bank or trust accounts to hold Contributions, payment of interest, conversion of local currency, obligations to pay payroll tax, determination of beneficiary designation requirements, withholding procedures and handling of stock certificates that vary with applicable local requirements. The Administrator also is authorized to determine that, to the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(f), the terms of an option granted under the Plan or an Offering to citizens or residents of a non-U.S. jurisdiction will be less favorable than the terms of options granted under the Plan or the same Offering to employees resident solely in the U.S. Every finding, decision, and determination made by the Administrator will, to the full extent permitted by law, be final and binding upon all parties.
15.Designation of Beneficiary. a.If permitted by the Administrator, a Participant may file a designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any Common Shares and cash, if any, from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death subsequent to an Exercise Date on which the option is exercised but prior to delivery to such Participant of such shares and cash. In addition, if permitted by the Administrator, a Participant may file a designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death prior to exercise of the option. If a Participant is married and the designated beneficiary is not the spouse, spousal consent will be required for such designation to be effective. b.Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Participant at any time by notice in a form determined by the Administrator. In the event of the death of a Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such Participant’s death, the Company will deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate. c.All beneficiary designations will be in such form and manner as the Administrator may designate from time to time. Notwithstanding Sections 15(a) and (b) above, the Company and/or the Administrator may decide not to permit such designations by Participants in non-U.S. jurisdictions to the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(f). 16.Transferability. Neither Contributions credited to a Participant’s account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive Common Shares under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as provided in Section 15 hereof) by the Participant. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition will be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw funds from an Offering Period in accordance with Section 10 hereof. 17.Use of Funds. The Company may use all Contributions received or held by it under the Plan for any corporate purpose, and the Company will not be obligated to segregate such Contributions except under Offerings or for Participants in the Non-423 Component for which Applicable Laws require that Contributions to the Plan by Participants be segregated from the Company’s general corporate funds and/or deposited with an independent third party. Until Common Shares are issued, Participants will have only the rights of an unsecured creditor with respect to such shares. 18.Reports. Individual accounts will be maintained for each Participant in the Plan. Statements of account will be given to participating Eligible Employees at least annually, which statements will set forth the amounts of Contributions, the Purchase Price, the number of Common Shares purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any. 19.Adjustments, Dissolution, Liquidation, Merger, or Change in Control. a.Adjustments. If the Company subdivides its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares (by share dividend, share split, reclassification, alteration of capital, capitalization of profits or otherwise) or combines its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares (by consolidation, reclassification, amalgamation or otherwise) or if the Administrator determines that there is any variation in the share capital of the Company or that there is any share dividend, extraordinary cash dividend, alteration of capital, capitalization of profits, bonus issue, reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization, amalgamation, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, exchange of shares, warrants or rights offering to purchase any class of Common Shares or other similar corporate event (including compromises or arrangements sanctioned by a court under Part VII of the Act, mergers, amalgamations or consolidations)) affects any class of Shares, the Administrator, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, will, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust the number and class of Common Shares that may be delivered under the Plan,
the Purchase Price per share and the number of Common Shares covered by each option under the Plan that has not yet been exercised, and the numerical limits of Sections 7 and 13. b.Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, any Offering Period then in progress will be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date, and will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed dissolution or liquidation, unless provided otherwise by the Administrator. The New Exercise Date will be before the date of the Company’s proposed dissolution or liquidation. The Administrator will notify each Participant in writing or electronically, prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the Participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof. c.Merger or Change in Control. In the event of a merger or Change in Control, each outstanding option will be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the option, the Offering Period with respect to which such option relates will be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date on which such Offering Period will end. The New Exercise Date will occur before the date of the Company’s proposed merger or Change in Control. The Administrator will notify each Participant in writing or electronically prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the Participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof. 20.Amendment or Termination. a.The Board or the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan, or any part thereof, at any time and for any reason. If the Plan is terminated, the Board or the Administrator, in its discretion, may elect to terminate all outstanding Offering Periods either immediately or upon completion of the purchase of Common Shares on the next Exercise Date (which may be sooner than originally scheduled, if determined by the Administrator in its discretion), or may elect to permit Offering Periods to expire in accordance with their terms (and subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 19). If the Offering Periods are terminated prior to expiration, all amounts then credited to Participants’ accounts that have not been used to purchase Common Shares will be returned to the Participants (without interest thereon, except as otherwise required under Applicable Laws, as further set forth in Section 12 hereof) as soon as administratively practicable. b.Without shareholder consent and without limiting Section 20(a), the Administrator will be entitled to change the Offering Periods or Purchase Periods, designate separate Offerings, limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld during an Offering Period, establish the exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld in a currency other than U.S. dollars, permit Contributions in excess of the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the Company’s processing of properly completed Contribution elections, establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Shares for each Participant properly correspond with Contribution amounts, and establish such other limitations or procedures as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion advisable that are consistent with the Plan. c.In the event the Administrator determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences, the Administrator may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or desirable, modify, amend or terminate the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequence including, but not limited to: i.amending the Plan to conform with the safe harbor definition under the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (or any successor thereto), including with respect to an Offering Period underway at the time;
ii.altering the Purchase Price for any Offering Period or Purchase Period including an Offering Period or Purchase Period underway at the time of the change in Purchase Price; iii.shortening any Offering Period or Purchase Period by setting a New Exercise Date, including an Offering Period or Purchase Period underway at the time of the Administrator action; iv.reducing the maximum percentage of Compensation a Participant may elect to set aside as Contributions; and v.reducing the maximum number of Common Shares a Participant may purchase during any Offering Period or Purchase Period. Such modifications or amendments will not require shareholder approval or the consent of any Participants. 21.Notices. All notices or other communications by a Participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan will be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form and manner specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof. 22.Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. Common Shares will not be issued with respect to an option unless the exercise of such option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto will comply with all applicable provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including, without limitation, the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the shares may then be listed, and will be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. As a condition to the exercise of an option, the Company may require the person exercising such option to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any of the aforementioned applicable provisions of law. 23.Code Section 409A. The 423 Component of the Plan is exempt from the application of Code Section 409A and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so be exempt from Code Section 409A. In furtherance of the foregoing and notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if the Administrator determines that an option granted under the Plan may be subject to Code Section 409A or that any provision in the Plan would cause an option under the Plan to be subject to Code Section 409A, the Administrator may amend the terms of the Plan and/or of an outstanding option granted under the Plan, or take such other action the Administrator determines is necessary or appropriate, in each case, without the Participant’s consent, to exempt any outstanding option or future option that may be granted under the Plan from or to allow any such options to comply with Code Section 409A, but only to the extent any such amendments or action by the Administrator would not violate Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will have no liability to a Participant or any other party if the option to purchase Common Shares under the Plan that is intended to be exempt from or compliant with Code Section 409A is not so exempt or compliant or for any action taken by the Administrator with respect thereto. The Company makes no representation that the option to purchase Common Shares under the Plan is compliant with Code Section 409A. 24.Term of Plan. The Plan is effective upon its adoption by the Board, subject to shareholder approval of the Plan pursuant to Section 25. It will continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years, unless sooner terminated under Section 20. 25.Shareholder Approval. The Plan will be subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan is adopted by the Board. Such shareholder approval will be obtained in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws. 26.Governing Law. The Plan will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware (except its choice-of-law provisions).
27.No Right to Employment. Participation in the Plan by a Participant will not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained as an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, as applicable. Further, the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company may dismiss a Participant from employment at any time, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise required pursuant to Applicable Laws. 28.Severability. If any provision of the Plan is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason in any jurisdiction or as to any Participant, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan will be construed and enforced as to such jurisdiction or Participant as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had not been included. 29.Compliance with Applicable Laws. The terms of this Plan are intended to comply with all Applicable Laws and will be construed accordingly.
NON-423 COMPONENT SUB-PLAN
The Liberty Latin America Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) is sponsored by Liberty Latin America Ltd. (the “Company”) for the benefit of its eligible employees. The ESPP offers you an opportunity to purchase Class C common shares of the Company (“Shares”) through payroll contributions and receive matching shares of company stock. The Shares are listed on the Nasdaq under the ticker “LILAK”.
This document describes the rules of the Non-423 Component Sub-Plan of the ESPP. The Non-423 Component Sub-Plan of the ESPP is not subject to any provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Offerings under this Non-423 Component Sub-Plan are not qualified under Section 423 or 401(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.
Key features •Invest 1%-15% of your eligible after-tax pay each pay period, up to plan limits to purchase company stock at a potentially discounted price as provided by the lookback feature. •Receive an additional share of company stock for every 3 purchased shares. You must remain employed by an Employer and retain ownership of the purchased Shares for one year following the end of the Contribution Period in order to receive the matching shares.
The ESPP is designed to help you meet your financial needs and long-term goals. Your participation is voluntary and should be just one part of an overall, well-balanced investment program.
Important Information about the Initial Contribution Period The opportunity to purchase Shares in the initial contribution period of January 1 to June 30, 2022 is fully contingent on shareholder approval of the ESPP at the annual general meeting in May 2022. Should shareholders not approve the ESPP at that time, no Shares will be purchased and all employee contributions made during the initial contribution period will be returned to the participant as soon as administratively feasible.
Eligibility and enrollment
Important dates The ESPP currently provides for two contribution periods a year, January 1 to June 30 and July 1 to December 31. Each contribution period is preceded by an enrollment period as set forth below. These periods will be adjusted to begin on the first business day on or after the dates set forth below. Additionally, the Administrator may adjust the enrollment period for a future offering and will communicate any adjustments to eligible employees. | | | | | | Enrollment Periods | Contribution Periods | November 15 – December 14 | January 1 – June 30 | May 15 – June 14 | July 1 – December 31 |
Who can participate Generally, you are eligible to participate in the ESPP if you are an employee (full-time or part-time and regularly scheduled for at least 20 hours per week) of LLA or any of its subsidiaries designated as participating in the contribution period. From time to time, the Administrator may change the designated subsidiaries that may participate in one or more offerings under this non-423 component of the ESPP.
Enrolling in the ESPP An enrollment period will precede each ESPP contribution period. You will need to log in to your ShareWorks account on the ESPP website during the enrollment period and designate a contribution percentage after you have reviewed all the enclosed prospectus material.
During each enrollment period, you have the opportunity to elect to purchase shares under the ESPP with 1%-15% of your eligible pay.
Your enrollment and contribution election for an election period will remain in effect for the following election period unless you change your contribution level on the ESPP website.
If you do not elect a contribution percentage during an enrollment period (and no contribution is carried over from the prior contribution period as described above), you will not participate in that contribution period and must enroll in a later enrollment period to participate in a future contribution period.
How to enroll There will be an enrollment period prior to the beginning of each contribution period. During that enrollment period, you can designate a contribution percentage by enrolling online on the ESPP website.
Once you enroll and select a contribution percentage, your participation will automatically continue for future contribution periods unless you visit the website to change or discontinue your participation.
Enrolling online You can enroll by logging on to the ESPP website. The address for this website is provided in your enrollment notification. From a work computer, you may click on the ESPP link on the company intranet, https://thehub.lla.com/. When participation ends When contributions end Your contributions end in the ESPP if any of the following occur: •You leave the company for any reason – including retirement, leave of absence, long-term disability or death; •You begin an unpaid leave of absence; •You are no longer an eligible employee; or •You withdraw your contributions.
Your contributions for the current contribution period will be refunded (without interest) in the following circumstances: retirement, termination, death, long-term disability, withdrawal of contributions or loss of eligible employee status.
If your contributions stop due to beginning an unpaid leave of absence, the contributions made to date will be used to purchase shares on the purchase date unless you withdraw your contributions. If you take an unpaid leave of absence longer than the remainder of any contribution period, you will not participate in any future contribution periods while on leave of absence, but your previously purchased Shares will remain in your account. Once you return to work, your contributions will continue in accordance with your elections in place prior to your leave of absence.
For example, if you begin an unpaid leave of absence on March 1, 2022, your contributions would stop as of March 1 and any contributions made from January 1 to February 28 would be used to purchase Shares unless you elect to withdraw those contributions. If you are still on unpaid leave of absence when the next purchase period begins on July 1, 2022, you will not participate at that time and will only continue contributions upon a return to work.
Your contributions will continue during a paid leave of absence unless you withdraw your contributions.
What happens to your shares on termination of employment Any Shares which were previously purchased will continue to be held in your account following termination of employment.
Contributions
How much you can contribute You may contribute from 1% to 15% of your eligible after-tax base pay to the ESPP. No interest will be paid to you on your contributions. Your contributions are held during the contribution period until stock is purchased and deposited in your account.
You may not contribute more than $25,000 USD to the ESPP in a calendar year. Any excess contributions will be returned to you as soon as feasible after it is determined that you will exceed the limit.
Additionally, there is a limit on the total number of Shares that you may purchase in any calendar year. This limit is 2,500 Shares per calendar year. However, the Administrator may adjust this limit for future years. If your contributions within a year would allow the ESPP to buy more than the permitted number of Shares of LILAK stock for your account, then your excess contributions will be returned to you as soon as administratively feasible after it is determined that you will exceed the limit. This may not be determined (and your excess contributions returned) until the end of the calendar year.
Withdrawing during a contributionperiod You may withdraw from the ESPP during the contribution period, up to the last month of the contribution period. If you submit your withdrawal election during the last month of the contribution period, your changes will apply to the next contribution period instead.
In order to withdraw, you must remove your election on the ESPP website. If you withdraw, your payroll contributions will be refunded to you within one to two pay periods, and no shares will be purchased on your behalf following the end of the contribution period.
If you withdraw from a contribution period, you may not participate in the following contribution period. If you wish to participate in a future contribution period after the contribution period immediately following your withdrawal, you must make a new election for contributions on the ESPP website.
Example of withdrawal 1.John enrolls during the January 1 – June 30 enrollment period at a 15% contribution level.
2.During the contribution period, John withdraws from participation in April and receives a refund of all of his contributions from the contribution period.
3.John cannot participate in the next contribution period being July 1-December 31 of the same year.
4.John wants to participate in the contribution period beginning the following January 1 and must make a new election in the ESPP website in order to do so.
Purchasing the shares At the end of the contribution period, the Company compares the Fair Market Value (“FMV”) of LILAK stock as of the first day and the last day of the contribution period. FMV means the closing price for LILAK stock on each relevant date. The Company then takes the lower of the two prices on those days as the purchase price for that contribution period, and this is known as the lookback feature.
Purchase Date: Shares of stock are purchased on the last day of each contribution period, in both whole and fractional shares at the lower of the two prices, using your accumulated payroll deductions from the six month contribution period.
Example 1: First Day Closing Price Last Day Closing Price $13.00 $16.00
In this example, Shares would be purchased at the lower price of $13.00.
Example 2: First Day Closing Price Last Day Closing Price $8.00 $6.00
In this example, shares would be purchased at the lower price of $6.00.
These examples only explain how the purchase price is determined. The prices used in the examples are neither representations as to the price of LILAK stock on any given date nor representations as to whether the market price of shares of LILAK stock will increase or decrease during any contribution period.
The ESPP will purchase shares of LILAK stock on the Purchase Date and the shares will be credited to your Shareworks account within 30 days after the end of each contribution period (June 30 and December 31).
You may choose to sell your shares at any time after the shares are purchased and reflected in your account. However, if you sell your shares within one year of the Purchase Date, you will not receive any matching shares for that contribution period. See below under “Matching Shares” for more information.
Matching Shares For every 3 whole Shares you purchase during a contribution period, you will receive 1 matching Share on the date that is one year after each Purchase Date. This match will be reflected as a Restricted Stock Unit (“RSU”) grant in Shareworks, with 100% vesting on the one-year anniversary of each Purchase Date. No fractional shares will be considered in this calculation and your matching shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.
Example: You purchase 25.5 Shares in the ESPP during the contribution period of January 1 to June 30. If you meet the requirements described below for Matching Shares, you will receive 8 additional Shares as a match.
Requirements to receive Matching Shares
In order to receive the matching Shares for a contribution period, you must: 1.continue to hold all shares you purchased during each contribution period and hold them in your Shareworks account through the one-year anniversary of each Purchase Date; and 2.remain continuously employed by an Employer.
For these purposes, an “Employer” includes the Company and any subsidiary of the Company that is designated to participate in this ESPP Non-423 Component Sub-Plan.
If your employment with the Company terminates for any reason before the one year anniversary of each Purchase Date, you will not receive the matching shares for that contribution period (the RSU grant will be canceled in Shareworks), subject to certain exceptions to be determined by the Administrator on a case-by-case basis.
Example: •As in the example above, you purchase 25.5 Shares for the contribution period ending June 30, 2022. •You sell 2 of those Shares before June 30, 2023 but keep 23.5 Shares. •You will not receive any matching Shares related to those 25.5 purchased Shares.
Tax Withholding The Company’s delivery of the Shares is subject to all applicable national, state and local taxes and employee social security contribution withholding requirements. To the extent that the Company is required to report earnings and withhold for taxes on the purchased or matching Shares, the Company will withhold the appropriate number of shares from the purchased or matching shares for the estimated amount of such withholding taxes. Additionally, if the benefit of the lookback feature applies to any shares purchased, you may be subject to taxes for this benefit as well. Any excess amounts withheld, if applicable, will be returned to the Participant as cash through payroll.
Administration of the ESPP
The Administrator of the ESPP is the Compensation Committee of the Company’s board of directors. The Administrator does not receive any compensation for administering the ESPP, and the Company bears all expenses in connection with the ESPP’s administration.
